Item Description

The 1-1/2" x 1-1/2" x 3/4" F-NPT 150 lb. Black Malleable Iron Reducing Tee is a crucial component in plumbing and piping systems. Malleable iron has a long history in construction, dating back to the 19th century, when it was primarily used for water, gas, and steam pipes. The material is known for its ductility and strength, making it suitable for high-pressure applications. This reducing tee is used to connect three sections of pipe, allowing for a change in diameter, specifically reducing from a larger pipe size to a smaller one. It is commonly utilized in both residential and commercial plumbing systems. The 150 lb pressure rating indicates that this tee can withstand pressures of up to 150 pounds per square inch, ensuring durability and safety in demanding applications. Its black finish is not just aesthetic; it also provides some resistance to corrosion. The F-NPT (female National Pipe Thread) design ensures easy integration with standard piping systems, making this component versatile for various installations. Its ability to facilitate branching flow in plumbing systems while maintaining efficient pressure transfer makes it an essential part of any plumbing professional's toolkit.
