ASC Engineered Solutions 310070602 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Are all four ports on this ASC cross the same size, or is it a reducing cross?
Straight 1-1/2 inch on all four ports. Sizes 1 through 4 are each listed at 1.5, so it is a full-size cross, not a reducing pattern. If you need a smaller branch off the run, you would bush one or two of the outlets down or use a reducing fitting instead.
2) Is a black malleable iron cross OK for potable water, or do I need galvanized?
Black malleable iron is the uncoated version and it is the normal choice for gas, fire protection, air, and closed-loop hydronic work. For potable water or wet exposed service, a galvanized fitting is the usual call, since black iron will rust where there is oxygen and moisture. The finish here is black, so specify a galvanized cross if the line is potable.
3) What does the STD strength rating mean on this 1-1/2 inch cross?
STD means standard pattern rather than extra heavy. Standard malleable iron fittings are dimensioned and pressure rated under ASME B16.3, with the casting made from ASTM A-197 malleable iron. If your spec calls out extra heavy or Class 300, this standard fitting will not satisfy it.
4) Should I use a cross or two tees on a 1-1/2 inch branch?
A cross gives you two opposed branches at one point, so it saves a nipple and a fitting compared with two tees back to back and keeps the branches on the same centerline. That matters for sprinkler risers and for hydronic headers where you want symmetric takeoffs. Use two tees instead when the branches need to be offset or at different sizes, since this one is 1-1/2 inch FPT on all four ports.
5) How much does the 1-1/2 inch black malleable iron cross weigh?
1.98 lbs each. Worth knowing when you are loading out a run of them or figuring hanger spacing on a horizontal header, since a cross adds concentrated weight plus whatever the two branch nipples and valves put on it.
