ASC Engineered Solutions 311081202 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is this ASC coupling approved for fire sprinkler piping?
It carries UL/FM approval, so it is acceptable for use on fire protection piping where a UL Listed, FM Approved threaded fitting is called for. It is a standard (STD) pattern galvanized malleable iron coupling rated per ASME B16.3.
2) Will this coupling meet a spec that calls for ASME B16.3 galvanized malleable iron fittings?
Yes. Dimensions and pressure rating are both to ASME B16.3, threads to ASME B1.20.1, material to ASTM A-197 and coating to ASTM A-153. That is the full callout most commercial and institutional plumbing specs use for galvanized MI fittings, so it drops into the submittal as written.
3) Is this a straight coupling or a reducer?
Straight. Both ends are 2 inch female pipe thread, so it joins two 2 inch pipe ends in line. If you need to step down to a smaller pipe, you want a reducing coupling or a bushing instead.
4) What is the difference between a standard and an extra heavy malleable iron coupling, and which is this one?
This ASC coupling is the standard (STD) class, which is the ASME B16.3 Class 150 pattern used for most plumbing, compressed air and sprinkler work. Extra heavy (Class 300) fittings have thicker walls and a higher pressure rating and are specified for higher pressure service. If the drawing calls out Class 300, this one does not meet it.
5) Is the galvanizing on this malleable iron coupling hot dip, and is it suitable for outdoor or wet locations?
The zinc coating is applied to ASTM A-153, the hot dip galvanizing spec for hardware, over a malleable iron body made to ASTM A-197. That coating is what makes it suitable for damp, outdoor, and galvanized-pipe systems where a plain black fitting would rust. Match it to galvanized pipe rather than mixing with black pipe on the same wet line.
