ASC Engineered Solutions 310070206 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Are all four openings on the ASC 1 inch black malleable iron cross the same size?
All four outlets are 1 inch, so it's a straight cross with no reducing legs. Every opening is female pipe thread (FPT), meaning male-threaded pipe or nipples thread into it on all four sides.
2) What thread does this 1 inch malleable iron cross take, and will standard black pipe nipples screw into it?
Threads are cut to ASME B1.20.1, which is the NPT standard used on ordinary black and galvanized steel pipe and nipples. A 1 inch male NPT nipple threads straight in. Since the fitting is female on all four legs, you need four male ends to complete the connections.
3) Is this cross acceptable for a fire sprinkler line?
It carries UL/FM approval, which is the listing fire protection contractors and AHJs look for on sprinkler piping components. It's standard weight (STD) black malleable iron built to ASME B16.3, the dimensional and pressure standard for threaded malleable iron fittings.
4) Black malleable iron or galvanized for this cross, and can I use it on a water line?
This one is black finish malleable iron, not galvanized. Black fittings are the normal choice for fire sprinkler, natural gas, air, and closed-loop hydronic service. For open potable water, use galvanized or another approved material instead; black iron will rust in that service.
5) Will a 1 inch malleable iron cross interchange with another brand's cross of the same size?
Dimensionally, yes. It's built to ASME B16.3, which fixes center-to-end dimensions for threaded malleable iron fittings, so any 1 inch Class 150 standard-weight cross to that same standard takes the same place in the run. Threads are ASME B1.20.1 NPT, so nipple lengths don't change either.
6) Should I use a cross or two tees at this point in the run?
A cross gives you four branches off one fitting on a single centerline, which keeps the run short and saves two nipples compared with back-to-back tees. Use tees instead when the branches need to be offset from each other or run on different planes, since this cross puts all four 1 inch FPT outlets on one fitting body.
7) How heavy is a single 1 inch black malleable cross for shipping or hanger load?
Each cross weighs 1.12 lbs. Worth counting into your hanger spacing if you are stacking several fittings at one point in the run.
