Value Collection MSC-62148952 Malleable Iron Black Tee

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSC-62148952 is a malleable iron black tee fitting designed for threaded pipe assemblies in plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping systems. Sized at 1/8 inch with NPT-style threaded end connections, this Class 150 fitting carries a pressure rating of 300 psi, making it suitable for both liquid and gas service. The black finish is standard for malleable iron fittings used in gas distribution and low-pressure steam applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting when branching a run of pipe in a tee configuration. It weighs 1.4 pounds and ships as a single unit.

This tee is appropriate for residential and light commercial piping installations where a 1/8 inch branch or run connection is required. Typical applications include natural gas supply lines, compressed air distribution, steam heating systems, and water piping where Class 150 malleable iron fittings meet the specified pressure and material requirements. The threaded connection style allows for straightforward assembly with standard NPT pipe and fittings using pipe thread sealant or tape.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC), or the International Plumbing Code (IPC) as appropriate to the service. Shut off and depressurize the supply line completely before disassembling or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly, and ensure fittings are hand-tight before using a pipe wrench to avoid cross-threading. Do not over-torque malleable iron fittings, as the material can crack under excessive force.
