1-1/2 inch x 1-1/2 inch x 3/4 inch Carbon Steel 4712 RG Gas Press Reducing Tee Press x Press x Fitting

1-1/2 in. x 1-1/2 in. x 3/4 in. Carbon Steel Gas Press Reducing Tee – Engineered for Press-Connect Gas Systems

The 1-1/2 inch x 1-1/2 inch x 3/4 inch Carbon Steel Gas Press Reducing Tee is a precision-engineered fitting for use in fuel gas piping systems. Designed for use with press-connect technology, it offers secure, flame-free installation and consistent sealing performance in both commercial and multi-unit residential gas distribution applications.

Advantages for the Job Site

This reducing tee supports high-efficiency installation while maintaining compliance with fuel gas system requirements. Key performance attributes include:

• Formed Carbon Steel Body – Manufactured to meet ASTM A420 standards for strength, uniformity, and pressure resistance.
• HNBR Sealing Element – Factory-installed yellow o-ring rated for fuel gas compatibility and tested per ANSI LC-4/CSA 6.32 standards.
• Press x Press x Press Configuration – Enables fast mechanical joining of dissimilar branch and main sizes with no threading or welding required.

Installation Requirements

Designed for use with press tools and approved jaw sets. Installation must follow manufacturer guidelines to ensure o-ring integrity and full circumferential contact. Recommended for use by licensed professionals trained in mechanical joint assembly for gas systems.

System Integration and Use Cases

• ✅ Fuel Gas Distribution – Suitable for natural gas and propane lines in low-pressure systems up to 125 psi.
• ✅ Transitional Layouts – Reducing branch outlet (3/4 in.) accommodates equipment drops or control valve assemblies.
• ✅ Pre-Coated for Corrosion Resistance – Zinc-plated exterior finish helps prevent oxidation in concealed or exposed installations.
• ✅ Reduced Downtime – Cold-press technology eliminates hot work permits and allows faster system commissioning.
• ✅ Code-Ready Design – Certified for fuel gas use per applicable ASME and CSA specifications.

Common Applications

Used in commercial kitchens, mechanical rooms, apartment complexes, and retrofits requiring transitions from 1-1/2 in. mains to 3/4 in. branch piping. The tee enables compact routing and alignment flexibility where traditional threaded fittings may not be practical.
