Reducing Tee 3/4" x 1/2" x 3/4" FNPT
This malleable iron fitting connects three pipes using female NPT threads. It reduces the centre branch from 3/4 inch to 1/2 inch while maintaining the run at 3/4 inch. Class 150 rating suits standard residential and light commercial plumbing systems. The ZORO SELECT brand identifies the product line.
Replaces mismatched bushings or separate couplings
A single reducing tee eliminates the need for a straight tee plus a reducer bushing. The jump is worth it when simplifying a branch line reduces potential leak paths and installation time. It fits existing NPT pipework without requiring adapters or special tools.
Handles water, air and inert gas at Class 150
The malleable iron body provides mechanical strength for threaded connections up to the rated class. It runs out when system pressure exceeds the Class 150 limit or when aggressive chemicals attack uncoated iron. The 14 specification covers each threaded port for consistent engagement.

Questions about this item
What size NPT threads does the 3/4" x 1/2" x 3/4" reducing tee use?
All three ports are female NPT with a 14 threads-per-inch pitch.
How do you seal the threads on this malleable iron tee during installation?
Apply PTFE tape or pipe dope to the male threads only, then tighten two turns past hand-tight to avoid cracking the Class 150 casting.
When should the tee be inspected or replaced in a pressurized system?
Check for corrosion, leakage or thread deformation at each scheduled system inspection; replace immediately if any damage is found.
