PPH Reducer Tee
PPH Reducer Tee is a different type of pipe tee seen in pipe and tube fittings. There are two types of pipe tees: standard tees, which have all outlets of the same size, and reducer tees, which have a mix of different outlet sizes. A PPH Reducer Tee is a type of pipe fitting made from PPH (Polypropylene Homopolymer) that combines the functions of a tee and a reducer. It is used in piping systems to branch a main pipe into a smaller or larger pipe, allowing the connection of pipes of different diameters at a 90° angle.
PPH (Polypropylene Homopolymer), material known for high chemical resistance, lightweight, and durability and Connects three pipes in a T-shape while reducing the diameter of one of the branches to accommodate a smaller or larger pipe.They widely used in chemical processing, water treatment, and corrosive fluid systems where different pipe sizes need to be joined in a branch connection.Also, can be socket-welded (solvent cemented), butt-welded, or flanged depending on piping requirements.
