Threaded Tee Configuration
Straight-Through Run
Two opposing female NPT openings form the primary straight-through piping path.
90° Branch
The third female NPT opening creates a perpendicular branch connection from the main run.
Three Threaded Openings
All three openings accept compatible male-threaded pipe or fittings.
Construction Details
These 3000# threaded tees are manufactured from normalized ASME SA105N forged carbon steel. Forged steel fitting dimensions conform to ASME B16.11.
Precision-machined female NPT threads on all three openings conform to ASME B1.20.1, providing a standardized threaded connection for the main run and perpendicular branch.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 3000# forged steel threaded tee?
It is a forged steel three-way fitting with female NPT connections designed to create a 90-degree branch from a straight threaded piping run.
How many connections does this tee have?
The fitting has three female NPT threaded openings.
What angle does the branch connection use?
The branch connection is positioned at 90 degrees to the straight-through run.
What material standard applies?
The supplied product information states that forged steel fitting material conforms to ASME SA105N.
Is the material normalized?
Yes. The supplied product information specifies normalized forged carbon steel.
What dimensional standard applies?
Forged steel fitting dimensions conform to ASME B16.11.
What standard applies to the NPT threads?
NPT threads conform to ASME B1.20.1.
How is a threaded tee different from a threaded outlet?
A tee is installed inline and provides three threaded openings, while a threaded outlet attaches directly to a run pipe to create a branch connection.
Is the manufacturing facility ISO certified?
Yes. The supplied product information states that the manufacturing facility is ISO certified.
What should I verify before ordering?
Confirm the nominal pipe size, 3000# class, three-way female NPT configuration, material requirements, and applicable piping-system specifications before ordering.
