Value Collection MDG130 40-5 Malleable Iron Pipe Tee 1-1/2 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MDG130 40-5 is a 1-1/2 inch galvanized malleable iron pipe tee designed for threaded pipe assemblies in liquid, gas, and steam distribution systems. Rated at 300 psi for liquid and gas service and 150 psi for steam service, this Class 150 fitting meets ISO 7/1 threading standards. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for long-term performance in demanding environments. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this fitting where a branch connection is required in a threaded iron pipe run.

This tee is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, gas distribution, and steam piping applications. Its malleable iron construction handles the mechanical stress of threaded assembly and the thermal cycling common in steam and hot-water systems. The threaded end connections allow direct engagement with standard NPT or ISO-tapered threaded pipe and fittings without welding or special tooling.

Key Features

• 1-1/2 inch nominal size with threaded end connections conforming to ISO 7/1 standards
• Rated 300 psi for liquid and gas service; 150 psi for steam service
• Class 150 malleable iron construction resists mechanical stress and thermal cycling
• Galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in wet and exposed environments
• Tee configuration allows a 90-degree branch connection in a straight pipe run

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1-1/2 inch threaded iron pipe systems operating within Class 150 pressure and temperature ratings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local mechanical and plumbing codes. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system fully before disassembling any threaded connections. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly to ensure a leak-free joint. Do not overtighten, as malleable iron threads can crack under excessive torque.
