Value Collection 13042 Malleable Iron Pipe Tee 3/8 Inch

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 13042 is a Class 150 malleable iron pipe tee designed for use in threaded pipe systems carrying liquid, gas, or steam. The tee fitting connects three sections of pipe at a branch point and is built from malleable iron with a galvanized finish coating for corrosion resistance. It carries a pressure rating of 300 psi for liquid and gas service and 150 psi for steam service. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC mechanics install this type of fitting in low-pressure distribution and branch piping runs where durability and leak-tight threaded connections are required.

This 3/8 inch tee fitting is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications involving water, air, gas, and steam at or below its rated pressures. It is a standard NPT-threaded malleable iron tee used in supply lines, branch connections, and utility piping where a Class 150 galvanized fitting meets code and system requirements. It ships in a package quantity of five units, making it practical for jobs requiring multiple branch connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IFGC requirements where gas service is involved. Shut off all pressure to the line and depressurize the system before disassembling or threading any fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male NPT threads before assembly. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as malleable iron fittings can crack under excessive torque.
