What are the different types of T pipe fittings?

Tees are also known as pipe tee fittings or pipe tees. A tee joint is used on a branch pipe from the main pipe. It features three openings: one entrance and two exits, or two entrances and one exit. This is a sort of chemical pipe fitting. Pipe fittings come in two shapes: T and Y. There are two types of pipe openings: equal diameters and varying diameters. They change the direction of fluids and are suitable for water pipelines, oil pipelines, and the transportation of various liquid chemical compounds. Pipeline. Main applications include medical, water conservation (water-saving irrigation, water supply and drainage), energy (oil, natural gas, nuclear industry), building, and other engineering sectors.

Classification according to pipe diameter

Equal tee: a tee of the same diameter as the main and branch pipes.

Reducing tee: The diameter of the branch pipe is smaller than that of the main pipe.

Classification according to docking form

Butt welding tee: It is a tee fitting that is welded after being attached to the connecting pipe fitting.

Socket-type tee: It is a tee fitting that is welded or welded after putting the connecting pipe fittings into both ends of the tee.

Tube-type tee: The tube fittings at each end are used to insert and tighten the pipe fitting.

Threaded tee: A tee fitting used to join threaded pipe fittings.

Classification according to material

It can be divided into stainless steel tee, carbon steel tee, copper tee, PVC tee, ductile iron tee, etc.

Classification according to branch pipe form

Positive tee: It is the tee fitting of the vertical main pipe of the branch pipe.

Inclined tee: It is a tee fitting with a specific angle between the branch and main pipes.
