ASC Engineered Solutions 311054803 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size openings does the ASC Engineered Solutions 3 x 3 x 1-1/2 galvanized malleable iron tee have?
It is a reducing tee: the two run ends are 3 inch and the branch outlet is 1-1/2 inch. All three ends are female pipe thread (FPT), so it threads onto male-threaded pipe nipples, not onto a female fitting. Use it where you need to pull a 1-1/2 inch branch off a 3 inch line.
2) Is this tee approved for use on a fire sprinkler system?
It carries a UL/FM listing, so it is acceptable for fire protection piping where the AHJ requires listed fittings. It is a standard-pattern (STD) malleable iron tee to ASME B16.3, which is the usual class for threaded sprinkler branch and cross main work.
3) Galvanized or black malleable iron tee, which do I need?
This one is hot dip galvanized to ASTM A-153. Pick galvanized for wet systems, outdoor or damp locations, and anywhere corrosion on the inside of the fitting would matter. Black malleable iron is the one used on dry gas and dry sprinkler lines. Don't mix galvanized fittings into a line the spec calls out as black.
4) Does this tee meet a spec calling for ASTM A197 malleable iron fittings?
Yes. The casting is malleable iron to ASTM A-197, with dimensions and pressure class per ASME B16.3 and hot dip galvanizing to ASTM A-153. That is the standard three-spec callout on most commercial and institutional threaded fitting submittals.
5) Can I use a reducing tee like this instead of a full size tee with a bushing?
A 3 x 3 x 1-1/2 reducing tee gives you the 1-1/2 inch branch in one fitting, with no bushing joint to leak and less restriction than a bushed outlet. It is also the cleaner answer on sprinkler work, since this tee is UL/FM listed and every added reducer is another listed component to account for.
6) What is the ASC Engineered Solutions part number for this tee?
Order it as model 311054803, the 3 x 3 x 1-1/2 galvanized malleable iron tee from ASC Engineered Solutions.
