The NPT Malleable Iron Pipe Fitting Reducing Tee is a precision-engineered component designed for high-performance fluid redirection. Primarily utilized at the intersection of main and branch pipelines, this reducing tee allows for an efficient change in flow direction while adjusting the pipe diameter to meet specific system requirements. Manufactured from premium ASTM A197 malleable iron, it ensures structural integrity and long-term reliability in demanding industrial environments.
Engineered for versatility, our reducing tees are available in a comprehensive range of sizes from 1/8" to 3", catering to diverse plumbing, heating, and industrial piping applications. With a robust working pressure rating of 1.6Mpa and available in various surface treatments including black, hot-dipped galvanized, and electro-galvanized finishes, these fittings provide superior corrosion resistance and a leak-proof seal under rigorous operating conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Malleable iron is heat-treated to remove internal stresses, making it significantly more ductile and stronger than standard cast iron, which is brittle and more prone to cracking under pressure.
For outdoor or high-moisture environments, we highly recommend Hot-dipped Galvanized finishes as they provide the thickest protective layer against oxidation and corrosion.
No, NPT (American National Standard Pipe Thread) and BSP (British Standard Pipe) have different thread angles and pitches. You must select the specific standard that matches your existing piping system.
Our malleable iron pipe fittings are rated for a working pressure of 1.6Mpa, ensuring safety and stability for a wide range of fluid transport applications.
Yes, malleable iron fittings are commonly used for gas, water, and air lines due to their strength and reliable sealing capabilities when installed correctly.
A reducing tee is identified by three dimensions (e.g., 1" x 1" x 1/2"). The first two represent the main run pipes, and the third represents the branch pipe diameter.
