ASC Engineered Solutions 310045802 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What are the three port sizes on the ASC Engineered Solutions 310045802 black malleable iron tee?
It's a reducing tee with two 1-1/2 inch runs and a 3/4 inch branch. All three openings are female pipe thread (FPT), so it threads directly onto male-threaded pipe nipples or fittings. Use it where you need to take a 3/4 inch drop or branch off a 1-1/2 inch line without adding a bushing.
2) Is this black malleable iron tee approved for use on a fire sprinkler system?
Yes, the 1-1/2 x 1-1/2 x 3/4 black malleable iron tee carries UL/FM approval, which is what an inspector looks for on sprinkler piping. It's standard (STD) strength malleable iron rated per ASME B16.3.
3) Will this tee thread onto standard black steel pipe, or do I need a special thread?
Threads are NPT per ASME B1.20.1, the standard American taper pipe thread, so it mates with any standard threaded black steel or galvanized nipple of matching size. All three ports are female. Dope or tape the male threads as usual.
4) Can I use a black malleable iron tee on a potable water line?
No. Black malleable iron fittings are for gas, air, steam, and fire protection service, not potable water, where the uncoated iron will rust. For a water line, use a galvanized malleable iron tee in the same 1-1/2 x 1-1/2 x 3/4 configuration or switch to copper or PEX. The black finish here is what identifies it as a non-water fitting.
5) Is this tee dimensionally interchangeable with other brands of malleable iron tees?
Yes. Center-to-end dimensions are built to ASME B16.3, the industry standard for malleable iron threaded fittings, so it drops into a run laid out for any other B16.3 tee of the same 1-1/2 x 1-1/2 x 3/4 size. No need to re-cut pipe lengths when swapping brands.
6) How much does this 1-1/2 x 1-1/2 x 3/4 black tee weigh for a freight or takeoff estimate?
1.61 lbs each. Worth knowing if you're ordering by the case for a sprinkler or gas rough-in, since iron fitting counts add up fast on a shipment weight.
