Value Brand 1/2" x 1/2" x 1/4" Malleable Iron Reducing Tee

SKU CH-PJEJ-AFRPW

Malleable iron reducing tee connects three FNPT pipes at 1/2", 1/2" and 1/4", rated 300 psi at 150 °F and 150 psi saturated steam to 366 °F, meeting ASME B16.3, B16.4.

  • Reduces pipe diameter with 1/2" x 1/2" x 1/4" FNPT connections
  • Malleable iron construction meets ASTM A-197 and ASTM A47 standards
  • Class 150 rating handles 300 psi at 150°F and 150 psi saturated steam
  • Operates from -20°F to 366°F for broad temperature compatibility
  • FM Approved and UL Listed per ASME B 16.3 and B 16.4

Application Fit

This malleable iron reducing tee joins two 1/2 inch FNPT branches to a single 1/4 inch FNPT outlet in Class 150 piping systems. It meets ASME B16.3 and B16.4 dimensional standards and carries FM Approved and UL Listed marks for code compliance. The ASTM A197 and A47 construction suits water, oil, air and saturated steam services.

Who Should Choose It

Installers needing a pressure-rated branch connection for hydraulic, pneumatic or low-pressure steam lines up to 300 psi at 150 degrees F will find the rating sufficient. Projects requiring higher pressure classes, larger branch sizes, welded joints or non-iron materials must select a different fitting type.

Deciding Specification

The maximum working pressure of 300 psi at 150 degrees F and the saturated steam limit of 150 psi define the safe operating envelope for this Class 150 tee. Verify that your system design pressure and temperature stay within these limits before specifying the part.

Questions about this item

Does the reducing tee come with any sealant or thread tape, or do I need to buy those separately?

The fitting is supplied alone. Thread sealant or PTFE tape must be purchased separately for the FNPT connections.

Which class or schedule should I select for a 1/2" x 1/2" x 1/4" malleable iron reducing tee?

This fitting is Class 150 and meets ASME B16.3 and B16.4, covering the standard pressure class for this size.

What does the 300 psi @ 150 °F rating mean when the tee is installed in a steam system?

It indicates the maximum non-shock pressure at that temperature; saturated steam service is limited to 150 psi per the same standard.
