Value Collection 13040 Malleable Iron Pipe Tee 1/8 Inch

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 13040 is a Class 150 malleable iron pipe tee designed for threaded piping systems carrying liquid, gas, or steam. Rated at 300 psi for liquid and gas service and 150 psi for steam, this tee provides a reliable branch connection in low-pressure distribution lines. The galvanized finish adds corrosion resistance for installations in humid or outdoor-adjacent environments. Sized at 1/8 inch, it fits into small-diameter threaded piping runs common in instrumentation, pilot lines, and light-duty gas distribution. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers for this type of fitting.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC condensate and gas pilot lines, and industrial instrument air applications where a 1/8-inch NPT branch connection is required. Its galvanized malleable iron construction makes it appropriate for both indoor and moderate-exposure installations. Sold in a package quantity of 5, making it practical for service vans and small project stock.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and IFGC or IPC requirements. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before disassembling any threaded connection. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly and tighten to a snug, leak-free fit using pipe wrenches rated for the fitting size. Pressure-test the completed assembly before returning the system to service.
