Malleable Iron Cross Fittings: Strength and Versatility

Our Malleable Iron Cross Fittings are manufactured from high-grade malleable iron, conforming to standards such as ASTM A197, ensuring exceptional tensile strength and ductility. These threaded cross fittings provide secure, leak-proof connections for a variety of low to medium-pressure piping systems. Available with NPT or BSPT threads, our malleable crosses come in pressure classes like Class 150 and Class 300. Choose between a black finish for oil and gas applications or a hot-dip galvanized cross finish for superior corrosion resistance in water systems and outdoor installations. These fittings are ideal for creating durable four-way junctions in plumbing, HVAC, and general industrial piping. We offer a full range of sizes for NPT pipe cross and industrial malleable cross applications.

Types of Malleable Iron Crosses:

Malleable Iron Cross

Our Malleable Iron Equal Crosses, also known as straight crosses, feature four female threaded outlets of the same nominal pipe size. Perfect for splitting a flow into three directions or combining three flows. Available in black iron and galvanized finishes

Galvanized Cross Reducer

he Galvanized Cross Reducer (Malleable Iron Reducing Cross) is designed with one or more outlets having a smaller diameter than the main run. This allows for direct connection of different pipe sizes, reducing the need for additional reducers. Hot-dip galvanized for excellent corrosion protection.

Grooved Cross Fittings: Rapid and Reliable Connections

Engineered for speed and reliability, our Grooved Cross Fittings are primarily manufactured from high-strength ductile iron . These fittings utilize a grooved-end mechanical joining method, allowing for quick assembly and disassembly, significantly reducing installation time and costs compared to traditional methods. Our ductile iron grooved cross selection is ideal for systems requiring flexibility to accommodate vibration, thermal expansion, or seismic movement. Common surface finishes include red epoxy coating (standard for fire protection fittings) or hot-dip galvanization. These fittings meet stringent standards like AWWA C606 and are often UL Listed and FM Approved for critical applications. We supply both equal grooved cross and grooved reducing cross variants.

cross

The Equal Grooved Cross provides four grooved outlets of the same size, facilitating a straightforward four-way connection in grooved piping systems. Commonly used in fire sprinkler systems and HVAC applications

Grooved Reducing Cross

Our Grooved Reducing Cross fittings feature one or more grooved outlets with a smaller diameter, enabling direct transitions between different pipe sizes within a grooved system. This simplifies design and installation, particularly in complex layouts.
