ASC Engineered Solutions 311087001 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the ASC 1 x 1/2 galvanized malleable iron reducer female threaded on both ends?
Both openings are female pipe thread (FPT), so the reducer takes male threaded pipe or nipples on each side. The threads are cut to ASME B1.20.1, the standard NPT thread spec, so it mates with any standard NPT male end. Large end is 1 inch, small end is 1/2 inch.
2) Can this galvanized malleable iron reducer 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) class galvanized malleable iron fitting built to ASME B16.3 for both dimensions and pressure rating. Confirm the class called for on your sprinkler drawing matches STD before installing.
3) Do I need pipe dope or PTFE tape with this ASC threaded reducer?
Yes. The connections are tapered NPT per ASME B1.20.1, and tapered pipe thread relies on a thread sealant, either pipe dope or PTFE tape, to seal. No gasket or O-ring is part of the fitting.
4) What does the ASC 1 x 1/2 galvanized reducer weigh, and what is the part number?
It weighs 0.49 lbs, which matters if you are pricing a bulk carton of fittings for a job. Order by manufacturer part number 311087001 from ASC Engineered Solutions.
5) Is this galvanized fitting suitable for potable water?
The reducer is a galvanized malleable iron fitting made to ASTM A-197 with an ASTM A-153 galvanized coating, specified for pipe fitting service and carrying UL/FM approval. Galvanized malleable iron is a standard choice on fire protection and general service piping; for potable water, match the fitting to whatever your local plumbing code requires for the piping material you are running.
