Product Description
The 304 Stainless Steel Double Press-Fit Union Tee is an innovative and versatile pipe fitting that combines the branch functionality of a tee with the serviceability of a union. It is engineered to provide a secure press-fit branch connection while incorporating a detachable joint for easy system disassembly, maintenance, or future modifications.
Manufactured from durable 304 stainless steel, this fitting ensures excellent corrosion resistance, structural integrity, and longevity, making it suitable for critical applications in plumbing, HVAC, and industrial fluid systems.
The design features double press-fit connections on two ends for permanent, leak-proof joints with the main pipeline, and a union (detachable threaded union nut and gasket) on the third (branch) port. This allows the branch line to be disconnected without cutting or disturbing the main press-fit assembly. It is an ideal solution for installations requiring future access, meter installation, valve servicing, or modular system designs.
