2 inch x 1 inch Galvanized Iron Reducing Tee – Built for High-Integrity Pipe Transitions

The 2 inch x 1 inch Galvanized Iron Reducing Tee is engineered for branch line integration and diameter reduction in threaded steel piping systems. Designed for performance in pressurized water, air, and non-corrosive fluid systems, this fitting maintains system integrity even under demanding service conditions.

Professional Advantages

• ✅ Hot-Dip Galvanized Coating – Provides superior corrosion resistance for extended service life in indoor and outdoor environments.
• ✅ ASTM A-197 Malleable Iron Body – Ensures high mechanical strength, with robust threading for repeated make-up and breakdown.
• ✅ Threaded NPT Connections – Complies with ANSI B1.20.1 standards for secure and consistent joint makeup across applications.
• ✅ Reducing Run-to-Branch Configuration – Allows for seamless reduction from a 2-inch main to a 1-inch outlet, improving layout efficiency and space management.
• ✅ Code-Ready – Suitable for potable and non-potable systems when installed per code with appropriate sealing compounds or PTFE tape.

Technical Specifications

• Material: Malleable Iron with Zinc Galvanization
• Size: 2 inch x 2 inch x 1 inch
• Connection Type: FPT x FPT x FPT (Female Pipe Thread)
• Standards: UL, FM, and ANSI compliance (based on manufacturer certification)
• Temperature Range: Up to 300°F (149°C) for non-steam systems

Typical Applications

Commonly used in branch takeoffs within supply and return systems, this reducing tee is appropriate for commercial, industrial, and residential installations. Ideal for hydronic heating, compressed air systems, fire protection lines, and low-pressure gas lines (verify code requirements).

Installation Notes

Ensure threads are clean and undamaged prior to assembly. Apply compatible thread sealant to male threads and tighten using standard wrench techniques. Avoid overtightening to prevent damage to female threads. When used in critical pressure systems, conduct a hydrostatic leak test after installation.

Did You Know?

Malleable iron fittings are preferred for threaded assemblies over cast iron due to their superior impact resistance and ductility—essential traits for preventing fracture in mechanical systems subject to vibration or torque.
