ASC Engineered Solutions 311037006 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size are the three openings on the ASC Engineered Solutions galvanized malleable iron reducing tee?
It's a 1/2 x 1/2 x 3/8 tee: the run is 1/2 inch on both ends and the branch outlet reduces to 3/8 inch. All three openings are female pipe thread (FPT), so pipe or male-threaded nipples thread into the fitting, not over it.
2) Can I use this tee on a fire sprinkler system?
It carries UL/FM approval, so it can be specified on fire protection piping. It's a standard (STD) class fitting dimensioned and pressure rated to ASME B16.3, which is the governing standard for threaded malleable iron fittings. Confirm the pressure class matches your sprinkler system design before installing.
3) Is a galvanized malleable iron tee OK for water lines, or should I use black iron?
Galvanized malleable iron is the usual choice for domestic water and wet service where black iron would rust; black iron is used on gas and on closed loops. This fitting is malleable iron per ASTM A-197 with a hot dip galvanized coating per ASTM A-153, which is the heavier zinc coating specified for threaded iron fittings.
4) Do the dimensions of this ASC tee match other brands' malleable iron fittings?
They should. It's built to ASME B16.3, which fixes center-to-end dimensions and threading for standard class malleable iron threaded fittings, so a 1/2 x 1/2 x 3/8 tee from any conforming maker takes up the same space in the run. That matters when you're replacing a single fitting in an existing assembly without re-cutting nipples.
5) How heavy is a 1/2 x 1/2 x 3/8 galvanized malleable iron tee for ordering in bulk?
About 0.32 lbs each. Handy if you're pricing freight on a case quantity or figuring hanger loads on a long horizontal run of small fittings.
