Description
150# Galvanized Side Outlet Tee
150# Galvanized Side Outlet Tees provide a compact multi-directional threaded connection for creating additional branch outlets in compatible piping systems.
The galvanized malleable iron construction combines a Class 150 fitting configuration with threaded connections and a protective zinc coating for applications where additional corrosion resistance is preferred over standard black malleable iron.

Construction Details
This side outlet tee is constructed from galvanized malleable iron, providing the strength of a threaded malleable fitting with a zinc-coated exterior for additional corrosion protection.
The side outlet configuration provides more connection points than a standard tee, making it useful where piping must branch in multiple directions from a common fitting.
The threaded design allows the fitting to be assembled with compatible threaded pipe, nipples, valves, and other system components without welded connections.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a side outlet tee?
A side outlet tee is a multi-directional fitting that provides an additional branch connection compared with a standard three-opening tee.
What material is this fitting?
This side outlet tee is constructed from galvanized malleable iron.
What type of connections does it use?
The fitting uses threaded connections for assembly with compatible threaded piping components.
Why is the fitting galvanized?
The galvanized zinc coating provides additional surface corrosion protection compared with an unfinished black malleable iron fitting.
What does 150# mean?
150# identifies the fitting class. It should not be interpreted as a universal 150 PSI working-pressure rating for every application.
When would a side outlet tee be used instead of a standard tee?
A side outlet tee is useful when the piping layout requires an additional branch direction from a common connection point.
Should thread sealant be used during installation?
Use a thread sealant suitable for the piping materials, conveyed media, operating conditions, and applicable installation requirements.
What should I confirm before ordering?
Confirm all connection sizes, the side outlet configuration, galvanized finish, fitting class, and compatibility with the intended piping system.
Important Ordering & Installation Notes
- Confirm all connection sizes.
- Verify the side outlet configuration.
- Confirm galvanized construction.
- Use compatible thread sealant.
- Follow proper installation practices.
