What Is an SP112 Threaded Tee?
The Charman Inc SP112 threaded tee is a 316 stainless steel fitting designed to create a three-way connection in a threaded piping system. The run continues through two opposing openings while the third connection forms a 90-degree branch.
All three openings use female threaded connections for compatible male-threaded pipe, nipples, fittings, valves, and equipment connections.
Why Choose a 316 Stainless Steel SP112 Tee?
316 Stainless Steel Construction
- Provides strong general corrosion resistance
- Useful in many industrial and process environments
- Suitable where 316 stainless steel piping components are specified
- Durable construction for threaded piping systems
- Well suited for utility, mechanical, process, and equipment applications
Three-Way Threaded Connection
- Provides two run connections and one branch connection
- Female threaded connections at all three openings
- Creates a 90-degree branch from the main piping run
- Equal-size configuration throughout the fitting
- No welding required for normal threaded assembly
Common Applications
Industrial & Process Piping
- Process piping systems
- Industrial utility piping
- Threaded stainless steel assemblies
- Equipment branch connections
- Distribution piping
Commercial & Mechanical Systems
- Commercial plumbing
- Mechanical piping systems
- Branch piping layouts
- Valve and equipment assemblies
- Maintenance and retrofit installations
Equal Tee vs. Reducing Tee
An equal threaded tee uses the same nominal pipe size at all three openings. A reducing tee uses one or more different connection sizes to combine a branch connection with a pipe-size transition.
The SP112 tees in this listing are equal-size tees. Select the variation that matches the nominal pipe size required at the run and branch connections.
Where an SP112 Threaded Tee Makes Sense
- Adding a branch to a threaded piping run
- Splitting flow between two piping paths
- Connecting equipment or instrumentation branches
- Building threaded stainless steel distribution assemblies
- Industrial process and utility piping
- Commercial and mechanical piping systems
- Valve and manifold arrangements
- Maintenance, repair, and retrofit installations
Ask Willy: Need Stainless Steel Fitting Information?
Review the Charman Inc stainless steel fittings specification sheet for product and dimensional information on SP112 threaded fittings, or use the complete stainless steel fittings catalog to compare available fitting styles, configurations, and sizes before ordering.
Installation & Selection Guidance
- Confirm the required nominal pipe size before ordering.
- Verify that all three mating components have compatible male threaded connections.
- Confirm that an equal-size tee is appropriate for the intended piping layout.
- Confirm that 316 stainless steel is compatible with the intended service.
- Inspect fitting and mating threads for damage or contamination before assembly.
- Use a thread-sealing method appropriate for the system media, pressure, temperature, and application.
- Begin threaded assembly carefully to reduce the risk of cross-threading.
- Tighten connections using appropriate tools and accepted threaded-piping practices.
- Avoid excessive tightening that could damage the tee or mating threads.
- Orient the branch correctly before final assembly.
- Support connected piping to avoid excessive mechanical loading on the tee.
- Confirm system pressure and temperature requirements before installation.
- Pressure-test completed piping assemblies where required.
- Installation should be completed by qualified personnel and in accordance with applicable codes and specifications.
Product Selection Considerations
Nominal Pipe Size
Select the SP112 tee that matches the nominal pipe size of all three compatible male-threaded piping components. Available sizes range from 1/4" through 2".
Equal vs. Reducing Tee
Use this equal tee when the run and branch connections are all the same nominal size. If the branch or run requires a different size, select an appropriate reducing tee instead.
