Tees

A forged fitting tee is a type of pipe fitting used to create a branch in a pipeline, allowing fluid to flow in three directions. These tees are made through the forging process, where high-pressure and heat are applied to a single piece of metal to form the tee shape. This forging process enhances the strength, durability, and resistance to high-pressure and high-temperature environments, making forged tees ideal for use in critical systems.

Forged tees are used to connect a smaller pipe to a larger main pipeline, allowing for efficient fluid distribution across the system. These tees are available in various sizes and materials, including carbon steel, stainless steel, and alloy steel, which can be selected based on the application requirements.

45° Forged Elbow

A forged fitting equal tee is a pipe fitting used to create a branch in a pipeline where the size of the branch pipe is equal to the size of the main pipe. It allows fluid to flow in three directions, maintaining the same diameter throughout the system. This type of tee is essential for splitting flow evenly, without changing the size of the pipes involved.

Forged equal tees are manufactured through the forging process, which involves applying high pressure and heat to a single piece of material, improving its strength and durability. As a result, forged equal tees are stronger and more reliable than cast tees, making them ideal for use in high-pressure and high-temperature systems. These fittings are commonly used in industries like oil and gas, chemical processing, power generation, and shipbuilding.

Materials Used for Forged Equal Tee

1.Carbon Steel
ASTM A105 for general applications where strength and toughness are important but extreme corrosion resistance is not required.

2. Stainless Steel:
ASTM A182 F304, F316 for industries needing resistance to corrosion, such as chemical processing or marine environments.

3. Alloy Steel:
ASTM A182 F5, F9 for high-temperature and high-pressure applications like power plants and industrial systems.

4.Duplex Stainless Steel:
ASTM A182 F51 for highly corrosive environments such as marine, offshore, and certain chemical applications.


Reducing tee

A forged fitting reducing tee is a pipe fitting used to create a branch in a piping system where the branch pipe is smaller in diameter than the main run pipe. It enables smooth flow transition from a larger pipe to a smaller one, maintaining pressure and minimizing turbulence. This fitting is ideal for connecting pipelines of different sizes in systems that require flow division or redirection.

Forged reducing tees are manufactured by hot forging, a process that involves heating metal and shaping it under high pressure. This results in a dense, strong, and durable product that can withstand high-pressure and high-temperature conditions, making them suitable for critical applications in various industries.
