Description
125# Leaded Brass Tee
125# Leaded Brass Tees are threaded fittings designed to connect three compatible piping runs at a common junction. The tee configuration allows flow to continue through the main run while providing a 90-degree branch connection for distribution, equipment connections, or changes in piping layout.
This product is identified as a 125# leaded brass fitting. Manufacturer dimensional, certification, and material safety documentation is provided below for reference.

Tee Construction
A threaded tee provides three connection points within one fitting. Two connections form the straight-through run, while the third connection branches from the main run at 90 degrees.
This configuration is commonly used to divide flow, combine flow, connect branch piping, or provide a takeoff point for equipment and other piping components.
The threaded design allows the tee to connect with compatible threaded pipe, nipples, valves, and fittings.

Tee vs. Reducing Tee
Standard Tee
- Three-way piping connection
- Typically uses the same nominal size at each opening
- Provides a 90-degree branch
- Useful for same-size branch connections
- This product configuration
Reducing Tee
- Three-way piping connection
- Uses different nominal sizes at one or more openings
- Allows branching while changing pipe size
- Useful where a smaller branch is required
- Different configuration from a standard tee

Installation & Selection Guidance
- Confirm the required nominal fitting size before ordering.
- Verify thread compatibility with all three mating piping components.
- Confirm the tee configuration matches the intended branch layout.
- Use an appropriate thread sealant for the system media, pressure, and temperature.
- Apply thread sealant according to the sealant manufacturer's instructions.
- Use appropriate wrenching surfaces during installation.
- Avoid over-tightening threaded fittings.
- Support connected piping as required to avoid excessive load on the tee.
- Confirm pressure, temperature, and media compatibility before use.
- Verify that leaded brass is permitted for the intended application.
- Installation should comply with applicable piping, plumbing, and project requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a brass tee used for?
A brass tee is used to connect three compatible piping sections at one junction, with the branch extending at 90 degrees from the main run.
What is the difference between a tee and a reducing tee?
A standard tee typically uses the same nominal size at each opening, while a reducing tee uses different connection sizes to create a smaller or larger branch connection.
Does a tee divide or combine flow?
A tee can be used in piping layouts where flow is divided into a branch or where compatible flow paths are combined, depending on the system design.
