Red Brass Reducing Tee 1/2 x 1/2 x 3/8
This red brass reducing tee connects three pipes with female NPT threads in a T configuration. It joins two 1/2 inch lines to a single 3/8 inch branch for fluid distribution. The fitting suits residential and commercial plumbing installations requiring a durable branch connection. It meets ASTM B584 and ASME B 16.15 standards for material and dimensions.
Class 125 FNPT construction
The Class 125 rating supports a maximum pressure of 125 psi across the operating range. Female NPT threads on all three ports allow direct assembly with standard male pipe threads without soldering. Red brass material resists dezincification and handles temperatures from -20 to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. The threaded joints enable disassembly for maintenance or system reconfiguration.
125 psi pressure rating
This single limit determines if the tee matches your system pressure requirements. Installations exceeding 125 psi need a higher-rated fitting to avoid failure. The temperature ceiling of 400 degrees Fahrenheit also bounds use in high-heat applications. California Proposition 65 warnings apply due to chemical content.
