ASC Engineered Solutions 311029409 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Are all three openings on the 1/4 inch galvanized malleable iron tee the same size and female threaded?
All three outlets are 1/4 inch and all three are female pipe thread (FPT), so it is a straight equal tee, not a reducing one. Thread form is NPT per ASME B1.20.1, so it makes up against standard 1/4 inch NPT male pipe nipples and male adapters.
2) Can this malleable iron tee be used on a fire sprinkler line?
It carries UL/FM approval, which is what an inspector looks for on fire protection piping. It is a standard (STD) pressure class malleable iron fitting built to ASME B16.3 for both dimensions and pressure rating.
3) Is a galvanized malleable iron tee OK on a water line, or should I use black iron?
The galvanized version is the one to use on wet service and damp or outdoor locations, because the zinc coating is applied to ASTM A-153 hot-dip standard. Black malleable iron is the usual pick for gas and dry systems. The iron itself is ASTM A-197 malleable, same as the black fittings.
4) Will this 1/4 inch tee match the dimensions of the galvanized fittings already on my system?
Yes, as long as your existing fittings are standard class malleable iron. Center-to-end and face dimensions follow ASME B16.3, which is the dimensional standard the whole galvanized malleable line is built to, so takeout lengths match other B16.3 fittings from any maker.
5) Do I need sealant on the threads of a 1/4 inch galvanized malleable tee?
Yes. NPT threads to ASME B1.20.1 are tapered and seal on thread engagement, so they need pipe dope or PTFE tape rated for the service. Plan on a male nipple or adapter into each of the three female outlets.
6) How heavy is a 1/4 inch galvanized malleable iron tee for shipping or a bulk MRO order?
Each fitting weighs 0.16 lbs, so a case quantity stays light. The orderable model number is 311029409.
