Stainless steel forged TEE are an important high-pressure pipe connection fitting. They are T-shaped and have the functions of diversion and confluence. They can connect three different pipes or divide one pipe into two.Stainless steel forged TEE are an efficient and reliable pipe connection fitting with a wide range of applications, including petroleum, chemical, power, aviation and other industries.The main production standards for stainless steel forged TEE include American Standard ASME B16.11, Chinese Standard GB/T 14383, British Standard BS3799.
What is ASME B16.11 Stainless Steel Forged Tee
Stainless steel forged tee come in a variety of types, including threaded tee and socket tee, depending on the connection method;equal tee and reducing tee, depending on the end size.
Stainless steel threaded tees refer to three-way pipe fittings with threaded connections at the ends. Depending on the diameter of the ends, they can be divided into equal tee and reducing tee.Equal tee are also known as straight tees. Reducing tees have the same size connecting pipe for the main pipe, but the connecting pipe for the branch pipe is smaller than the main pipe's connecting pipe.

Stainless steel forged socket tee is a method of socket welding, which involves inserting steel pipes into socket holes for welding to achieve the connection between pipes. Socket tees can also be divided into equal and reducing tees based on end diameter.
