45° Lateral Configuration
Straight-Through Run
Two flanged openings form the primary straight-through piping path.
45° Branch
The third flanged opening branches from the main run at a 45-degree angle.
Flanged Connections
Each connection is designed to mate with compatible flanged piping components using suitable gaskets and fasteners.
Construction Details
These 125# flanged 45° laterals are manufactured from grey iron castings conforming to ASTM A126 and ASTM A48.
Flanged fitting dimensions conform to ASME B16.1 and ANSI/AWWA C110/A21.10. The lateral configuration provides an angled branch connection that can offer a more gradual flow transition than a perpendicular tee in compatible piping layouts.
Why Choose a 125# Flanged 45° Lateral?
Angled Branch Connection
- Creates a 45-degree branch from the main line
- Three-way flanged configuration
- Provides a more gradual branch angle than a standard tee
- Useful for angled distribution piping
- Class 125 configuration
Grey Iron Construction
- Grey iron castings
- Conforms to ASTM A126 and ASTM A48
- Dimensions conform to ASME B16.1
- Also references ANSI/AWWA C110/A21.10
- Manufactured in an ISO-certified facility
45° Lateral vs. Straight Tee
45° Lateral
A lateral creates a branch at a 45-degree angle from the main piping run.
Straight Tee
A straight tee creates a branch at 90 degrees to the main piping run.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 125# flanged 45° lateral?
It is a grey iron three-way flanged fitting designed to create a branch connection at a 45-degree angle from the main piping run.
How is a lateral different from a tee?
A lateral branches at 45 degrees, while a standard tee branches at 90 degrees.
How many connections does this lateral have?
The fitting has three flanged connections.
What material is this lateral made from?
The supplied product information states that the fitting uses grey iron castings conforming to ASTM A126 and ASTM A48.
What dimensional standards apply?
Flanged fitting dimensions conform to ASME B16.1 and ANSI/AWWA C110/A21.10.
Is this fitting UL Listed?
The supplied product information states that Class 125 fittings are UL Listed through 12".
Why use a 45° lateral instead of a 90° tee?
A 45-degree lateral provides an angled branch path that may better suit certain piping layouts and offers a more gradual branch direction.
Is the manufacturing facility ISO certified?
Yes. The supplied product information states that the manufacturing facility is ISO certified.
Is flange dimensional information available?
Yes. A flange dimensional reference PDF is linked in the Willy section above.
What should I verify before ordering?
Confirm nominal pipe size, flange dimensions, bolt patterns, gasket requirements, Class 125 requirements, branch angle, material compatibility, and applicable piping-system specifications before ordering.
