ASC Engineered Solutions 310516406 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Are all three openings on this 1 inch black malleable iron tee the same size?
Yes, it's a straight 1 inch tee. All three outlets are 1 inch with female pipe threads, so it takes 1 inch pipe on the run and the branch with no reducing bushing needed.
2) What thread does this ASC tee use, and will it mate with standard 1 inch black steel pipe?
The ends are FPT cut to ASME B1.20.1, the NPT standard, so it threads onto any 1 inch NPT male pipe nipple or threaded black steel pipe. Use pipe dope or PTFE tape on the male threads.
3) What does XH mean on a malleable iron fitting, and how is it different from a standard 150 tee?
XH is extra heavy, the 300 class malleable iron fitting. It's a thicker wall and a higher pressure rating than the standard 150 class fitting, dimensioned and pressure rated to ASME B16.3. If your drawing calls for Class 300 or extra heavy, this is the one; for ordinary low pressure work the standard 150 black tee is the usual pick.
4) Is this black tee approved for use on a fire sprinkler system?
It carries UL/FM approval, so it can be used where the fire protection spec requires listed fittings. Black malleable iron is the normal choice for wet sprinkler piping.
5) Can I use a black malleable iron tee on a potable water line?
No. Black malleable iron fittings are for gas, steam, fire protection, and general black steel piping. For potable water you want galvanized or a lead free brass or copper fitting instead. This tee is black finish malleable iron.
6) What material spec does this ASC Engineered Solutions tee meet?
The casting is malleable iron to ASTM A-197, with dimensions to ASME B16.3. Those are the two lines a submittal for black malleable fittings normally asks for.
7) How much does the 1 inch extra heavy black tee weigh for takeoff and hanger sizing?
1.62 lbs each. Worth counting on longer runs of XH fittings, since the extra heavy wall adds up against standard 150 pattern weights when you size supports.
