EQUAL TEE

A buttweld equal tee is a pipe fitting used to create a branch in a piping system where all three connections have the same diameter.

It is welded directly to the pipes for a strong, leak-proof, and permanent joint, commonly used in high-integrity industrial applications. 

Materials and Standards

Buttweld equal tees are manufactured in various materials to suit different application requirements and adhere to several key industry standards. 

  • Materials: Common options include:
    • Carbon Steel: ASTM A234 WPB (used for general industrial applications).
    • Stainless Steel: ASTM A403 WP304/L and WP316/L (for corrosive environments, chemical processing, and hygienic applications).
    • Alloy Steel: For high-temperature and high-pressure services.
  • Standards: Dimensions, tolerances, and materials generally conform to standards such as ASME B16.9, MSS SP-43, and EN10253. Wall thickness is specified by the pipe schedule (e.g., Sch 10, Sch 40, Sch 80).
