ASC Engineered Solutions 310069406 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Are all four outlets on this ASC cross the same size?
Yes, it's a straight 1/4 inch cross: all four ports are 1/4 inch, so run and branch are the same size. If you need to step down on a branch, you'll reduce with a bushing at that outlet.
2) Can I use a black malleable iron cross on a potable water line?
No. Black malleable iron is for non-potable service, typically gas, air, or fire protection and other black steel pipe systems. It has no corrosion-resistant coating, so on domestic water you want galvanized, brass, or copper instead.
3) Will this cross mate with my existing 1/4 inch black iron pipe and fittings?
It will, as long as your pipe is threaded 1/4 inch NPT. The cross is dimensioned to ASME B16.3 and threaded to ASME B1.20.1, the same standards the rest of a black iron threaded system is built to, so it drops into an existing run of 1/4 inch black pipe without adapters.
4) When should I use a cross instead of two tees on a small black iron line?
A cross gives you four outlets at one point, so it's the fitting when two branches leave the run opposite each other at the same location, such as gauge and drain takeoffs at a header or a sprinkler drop with side connections. Two tees back to back do the same job but add length and one more joint; a 1/4 inch cross keeps it to a single fitting.
5) How much does the 1/4 inch ASC malleable iron cross weigh?
0.18 lbs each. Light enough that it adds nothing meaningful to hanger loading on a small-diameter run, and worth noting if you're pricing out a bulk carton for an MRO stock shelf.
