ASC Engineered Solutions 311061808 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What makes a street tee different from a regular malleable iron tee?
On the ASC Engineered Solutions 3/8 galvanized malleable iron street tee, one of the three openings is male pipe thread (MPT) and the other two are female pipe thread (FPT). A standard tee is female on all three. The male end lets you thread the fitting straight into another fitting, a valve, or a coupling without adding a nipple, which saves a joint and shortens the run in tight spaces.
2) Can I use this malleable iron street tee on a fire sprinkler line?
It is UL/FM listed, which is the approval fire protection contractors and AHJs look for on sprinkler piping components. It is a standard weight (STD) fitting rated per ASME B16.3, galvanized for corrosion resistance, which is what a wet or dry system branch line typically calls for.
3) Is this 3/8 street tee the same size on all three openings?
Yes, all three openings are 3/8 inch, so it is a straight run-and-branch tee with no reducing outlet. Two openings are female threaded, one is male.
4) Is the galvanizing on this fitting hot dip or electroplated?
The finish is galvanized to ASTM A-153, which is the specification for hot dip zinc coating on iron and steel hardware. That is a heavier, more durable coating than electroplate and is what gets specified for damp, outdoor, or sprinkler service.
5) What material spec does this ASC street tee meet, and does it matter for a submittal?
The casting is malleable iron to ASTM A-197, with dimensions and pressure class to ASME B16.3 and threads to ASME B1.20.1. Those three plus the ASTM A-153 galvanizing are the lines a spec reviewer or inspector will want to see on a submittal for threaded iron pipe fittings.
6) Should I use a galvanized fitting or a black malleable fitting for my job?
Galvanized like this 3/8 street tee is for water service, damp locations, exposed runs, and sprinkler work where the zinc coating resists corrosion. Black malleable iron is the usual pick for gas piping and dry interior service. Same ASME B16.3 dimensions either way, so the choice comes down to the medium and the environment, not the fit.
