ASC Engineered Solutions 310087200 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will this black malleable iron reducer thread onto standard NPT pipe?
Yes. The threads are made to ASME B1.20.1, which is the standard NPT taper thread spec, so it mates with ordinary black or galvanized NPT pipe and nipples. Use pipe dope or PTFE tape on the taper as you would with any NPT joint.
2) Can I use a black malleable iron reducer on a potable water line?
No. Black malleable iron fittings are for gas, air, and non-potable service such as black steel gas piping, fire protection, and industrial lines. The black finish is an uncoated mill finish with no corrosion protection, so it rusts in wet potable service. For domestic water, use galvanized, brass, or copper instead.
3) Is this reducer approved for fire sprinkler piping?
It carries UL/FM approval, so it can be used on listed fire protection piping where a UL/FM malleable iron fitting is called for. It is a standard (STD) class fitting built to the ASME B16.3 pressure rating.
4) Is this a standard or extra heavy (150 vs 300) malleable fitting?
Standard class. The Strength rating is STD, which in malleable iron means the 150 class fitting under ASME B16.3, not the 300 class extra-heavy pattern. If your drawing calls for Class 300, this is not the right fitting.
5) What material spec and dimensional standard does this ASC reducer meet?
The casting is ASTM A-197 malleable iron, with dimensions to ASME B16.3 and threads to ASME B1.20.1. Those are the three lines a submittal or spec sheet usually asks for on a black iron fitting.
6) How much does the 1 x 3/8 black malleable reducer weigh for a freight or bulk order?
0.35 lbs each. Useful if you are pricing out a case quantity or figuring total weight on a pipe fitting pull for a job.
