Stainless Steel Tee Fittings are crucial components used in pipelines for the smooth distribution of fluids, gases, and chemicals across diverse industrial systems. A tee fitting, also known as a Tee Pipe Fitting, is designed in the shape of the English alphabet “T” and is widely used to connect three different pipe sections at a 90° branch angle. SS Tee fittings are preferred because of their corrosion resistance, durability, and adaptability to various pressure and temperature conditions. Whether you’re building a new pipeline network or maintaining an existing one, choosing the right stainless steel tee ensures reliable performance and long service life.
A stainless steel tee fitting is a type of pipe fitting that enables one inlet and two outlets or vice versa, allowing the pipeline to split or combine fluid flow. They are typically used in plumbing, chemical processing, oil & gas, food & beverage, and water treatment industries. The “T” shape allows easy branching, making it an essential fitting for systems where fluid direction needs to be managed efficiently.
Tee fittings are available in multiple types and sizes, offering a range of configurations to meet the demands of different piping systems. They are manufactured using high-quality stainless steel grades to ensure resistance to rust, pitting, and scaling, even in harsh environments.
Equal Tee Fittings
The branch pipe and main pipe have the same diameter.
Ideal for consistent flow distribution.
Reducing Tee Fittings
The branch outlet has a smaller diameter than the main run.
Perfect for reducing pipe sizes in a network.
Threaded Tee Fittings
Feature internal threads for easy assembly and disassembly.
Commonly used in smaller pipelines.
Buttweld Tee Fittings
Designed for welding onto pipes for a leak-proof joint.
Suitable for high-pressure and high-temperature applications.
Socket Weld Tee Fittings
Pipes are inserted into the fitting socket and welded.
Provides a strong, leak-resistant connection.
Fabricated Tee Fittings
Custom-designed for unique applications.
Used in specialized industrial systems.
SS tee fittings are available in a variety of surface finishes to suit different applications:
SS Tee fittings are manufactured in a wide range of austenitic, ferritic, martensitic, and duplex grades to meet industry requirements. Popular grades include:
Each grade offers distinct properties such as enhanced corrosion resistance, heat resistance, or mechanical strength, making them suitable for different industries and environments.
