ASC Engineered Solutions 311040406 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size are the three openings on the ASC 1 x 1 x 1/4 galvanized malleable iron tee?
The run is 1 inch on both ends and the branch outlet is reduced to 1/4 inch. All three openings are female pipe thread (FPT), so pipe threads into each one. It is a reducing tee, useful where you need a small tap off a 1 inch line for a gauge, sensor, drain or drop.
2) Will this tee thread onto standard NPT pipe?
Yes. Threads are cut to ASME B1.20.1, which is the standard NPT taper thread spec, so it mates with ordinary threaded steel or galvanized pipe and NPT nipples. All three ports are female, so you thread male pipe ends into the fitting.
3) Is this a Class 150 standard tee or an extra heavy fitting?
It is a standard (STD) pattern malleable iron tee, dimensioned and pressure rated to ASME B16.3. If your spec calls for an extra heavy pattern fitting, this is not the one.
4) What is the galvanized coating on this malleable iron tee, and is it suitable for outdoor or damp locations?
The coating is hot dip galvanizing to ASTM A-153, applied over ASTM A-197 malleable iron. That is the same zinc coating used on galvanized pipe, so the fitting matches galvanized lines and holds up in wet, outdoor, and corrosive service better than black iron.
5) Can I use a reducing tee like this instead of a full size tee with a bushing?
Yes, and it is the cleaner way to do it. The 1 x 1 x 1/4 tee gives you the 1/4 inch tap built in, so you skip the 1 x 1/4 reducing bushing and one extra joint that can leak. Use a full 1 x 1 x 1 tee plus a bushing only if you may need to open that branch up to full size later.
6) How much does one of these 1 inch galvanized tees weigh for a takeoff or freight estimate?
Each tee weighs 0.55 lbs. Handy when you are pricing a bulk box for a sprinkler or process piping run.
