Value Collection B-TEE05 Black Malleable Iron Tee 1/2 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION B-TEE05 is a black malleable iron tee fitting designed for threaded pipe assemblies in gas and liquid distribution systems. Rated at Class 150 with a 300 psi pressure rating, this fitting handles the demands of commercial and residential piping installations. The black finish is standard for gas piping applications. At 1.4 pounds, the fitting is solid and properly proportioned for a 1/2 inch line. Plumbers, pipefitters, and gas technicians install this type of fitting when branching a run of threaded iron pipe into a tee configuration.

This tee fitting is suited for 1/2 inch threaded iron pipe systems carrying gas or liquid media. Common applications include natural gas distribution lines, propane supply piping, steam systems, and water supply runs where malleable iron is specified. The threaded end connections allow installation with standard pipe wrenches and pipe thread sealant or tape. The black finish and Class 150 rating make it a standard choice for low-pressure gas service in both residential and light commercial settings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the IFGC or IPC. Shut off gas or fluid supply and depressurize the line completely before removing any existing fitting. Apply approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly and tighten with a pipe wrench to achieve a leak-free joint. Do not over-torque malleable iron fittings, as cracking can occur.
