Reducing Tee for NPT Piping

This ZORO SELECT reducing tee connects 2" and 1-1/2" FNPT pipes in a T configuration. It is built from black malleable iron rated to Class 150 for water, oil and gas service up to 300 psi at 150 °F and 150 psi saturated steam. The fitting meets ASTM A-197, ASTM A47 and ASME B 16.3 and B 16.14 standards and carries UL and FM approvals.

Installation Notes

Thread the three FNPT ends with pipe sealant or tape and tighten to the appropriate torque for iron fittings. The heavy malleable iron body resists cracking during assembly, but over-tightening can still damage threads or split the hub. Ensure the 1-1/2" branch aligns with the intended flow direction before final tightening, as repositioning after sealant cures is difficult.

Pressure and Temperature Limits

The Class 150 rating caps non-shock service at 300 psi for water, oil and gas at 150 °F and 150 psi for saturated steam. Pressure capacity falls as temperature rises above the rated point, so the tee must not be used beyond these limits. The standards listed cover material quality and thread dimensions only; they do not extend the published pressure-temperature envelope.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the reducing tee is working correctly after installation?

Pressurize the system up to 300 psi at 150 °F water, oil or gas, or 150 psi saturated steam, and check all three FNPT joints for leaks.

What comes with the reducing tee and what must I supply?

The tee itself is supplied; you must provide 2-inch and 1-1/2-inch NPT pipe nipples or fittings plus suitable thread sealant.

Which version of this tee should I choose for my pressure requirements?

This single Class 150 model covers 300 psi WOG at 150 °F and 150 psi saturated steam per ASTM A-197, A47 and ASME B 16.3 and B 16.14.
