A Forged Tee Fitting is a type of pipe fitting that is used to create a branch connection in a piping system. It is called a "tee" because its shape resembles the letter "T." The forged tee is manufactured through a forging process, which involves applying heat and pressure to shape and deform the material into the desired tee configuration.
The forged construction ensures the tee can withstand the demanding conditions often present in industrial piping systems. The choice of a forged tee depends on factors such as the application, pressure, temperature, and the specific requirements of the piping system.
A Socket Weld Equal Tee is a forged pipe fitting that features three openings of the same size, arranged in the shape of a "T." It is used to provide a branch connection in a pipeline where the flow needs to be split equally in three directions. The term "socket weld" refers to the end connections of the tee.
A Threaded Equal Tee is a forged pipe fitting with three threaded openings of the same size, forming a "T" shape. This tee is used for creating branch connections in a piping system, and the threaded ends allow for easy installation without the need for welding.
A Socket Weld Reducing Tee is a forged pipe fitting that features three openings forming a "T" shape, but with different sizes for the inlet and outlet pipes. It is used to connect pipes of varying diameters in a way that allows fluid to flow from the larger-diameter pipe into two smaller-diameter pipes. The term "socket weld" refers to the end connections of the tee.
A Threaded Reducing Tee is a forged pipe fitting with three threaded openings forming a "T" shape, but with different sizes for the inlet and outlet pipes. Like its socket weld counterpart, it is used to connect pipes of different diameters in a way that redistributes the flow.
A Socket Weld Lateral Tee is a forged pipe fitting with three openings forming a "T" shape. Unlike a standard tee where the branch is at the center, a lateral tee has the branch at a 45-degree angle from the run. The term "socket weld" refers to the end connections of the tee.
A Threaded Lateral Tee is a forged pipe fitting with three threaded openings forming a "T" shape, but with the branch at a 45-degree angle from the run. Like its socket weld counterpart, it is used to create a lateral branch connection in a piping system.
