Steel Pipe Tee Carbon Steel Pipe Fittings
Steel pipe tee has two types:Equal Tee and Reducing Tee.Common tees have 90 dergee between the main pipe and the branch.There also has lateral tee which has 45 degree between the main pipe and the branch.
Steel pipe tee is a T-shaped pipe fitting with three branch pipes. It is used to divide pipes to adjust flow and change direction.Tees could be butt welded fittings or forged fittings.
Carbon steel is the commonly used material to manufact tees..Carbon steel pipe fittings have a wide range of applications:oil, gas line,chemical pipelines and hydraulic machinery.Carbon steel fittings are cost-effective as the steel is cheap and wide usage.
The end of Butt welded fittings are connected to the pipe system by butt welding.Butt weld fittings provide permanent leak-proof performance.BW fittings could made from seamless or welded pipe,and then through several processes formed to get the shape of pipe fittings.The type of the ends could be PE(plain end),BE(bevelled end) and THD(threaded end).
The two types of tee are Equal and Reducing.
Equal Tee
Equal diameter tee, also known as straight tee, the branch diameter of the tee is the same as the pipe diameter of the tee.
Reducing Tee
The reducing tee has two outlets cut at 90 degrees with the main pipe, and the size of the branch pipe is smaller than the port of the pipeline.
