304 Stainless Steel Casting Tee Threaded NPT Class 150 Fitting

304 Stainless steel tee is a T-shaped fitting with three ports used to create a 90° branch on a main pipeline. It is mainly divided into two types:

• Equal Tee: Three ports have exactly the same size, used to evenly distribute flow
• Reducing Tee: Branch pipe port size is smaller than the main pipe port, used to connect smaller branch pipes

These fittings are fundamental components for constructing fluid distribution pipelines.

There are three main connection methods for industrial pipe fittings:

• Threaded Connection: Suitable for medium and low voltage systems, with easy installation and disassembly
• Socket Welding: Used for high-pressure, small-diameter pipelines, connected by fillet welds with high strength
• Butt Welding: Direct welding of pipeline ends for continuous, integrated systems with highest strength

304 stainless steel (cast as CF8) is the most widely used and cost-effective stainless steel grade. It exhibits:

• Good corrosion resistance in water, air, and various weakly corrosive media
• Effective rust prevention ensuring fluid media cleanliness
• Excellent mechanical properties and ease of processing

This makes it an ideal material for manufacturing low-pressure pipe fittings in fields such as water supply, drainage, and general chemical engineering, combining reliability and economy.

Class 150 cast tees are core components of low-pressure fluid distribution systems. The 2-inch size is commonly used for:

• Commercial water supply and drainage systems
• Fire sprinkler installations
• HVAC waterways
• General industrial utility pipelines

The convenient NPT thread connection method provides an economical and efficient solution for constructing complex pipeline networks under non-critical and non-high pressure conditions.
