Description
150 lb. Ductile Iron Flanged Reducing Tee
ASC / SCI FIG 38RT1 150 lb. Ductile Iron Flanged Reducing Tee provides a three-way flanged connection with a reduced branch or reducing run configuration for compatible piping systems.
Applicable Class 150 configurations are manufactured from ductile iron conforming to ASTM A536, with flanged fitting dimensions conforming to ASME B16.42 and ANSI/AWWA C110/A21.10. The reducing design combines branching and pipe-size transition in a single fitting.

Construction Details
FIG 38RT1 uses a reducing tee configuration to provide three flanged connections while allowing different nominal pipe sizes to be joined within the same fitting.
Applicable Class 150 configurations use ductile iron conforming to ASTM A536. Applicable flanged fitting dimensions conform to ASME B16.42 and ANSI/AWWA C110/A21.10.
The integral reducing design can eliminate the need for a separate reducer at the branch connection. Galvanizing is available upon request when an alternate protective finish is required.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the figure number for this reducing tee?
The ASC / SCI 150 lb. Ductile Iron Flanged Reducing Tee is FIG 38RT1.
What does a flanged reducing tee do?
It creates a three-way connection while allowing different nominal pipe sizes to be connected within the same fitting.
How many connections does FIG 38RT1 have?
FIG 38RT1 has three flanged connections for the run and branch piping.
How is a reducing tee different from a standard tee?
A reducing tee connects different nominal pipe sizes, while a standard straight tee generally uses matching connection sizes.
What material is used for the Class 150 configurations?
Applicable Class 150 configurations are manufactured from ductile iron conforming to ASTM A536.
What standards apply to this reducing tee?
Applicable ductile iron flanged fitting dimensions conform to ASME B16.42 and ANSI/AWWA C110/A21.10.
Can FIG 38RT1 be galvanized?
Yes. ASC / SCI identifies galvanizing as available upon request.
What should I confirm before ordering?
Confirm all connection sizes, reducing configuration, mating flange compatibility, gasket requirements, and intended system service.
Important Ordering & Installation Notes
- Confirm all three flange sizes.
- Verify the reducing configuration.
- Use compatible flange gaskets.
- Support adjoining piping properly.
- Confirm intended system service.
