Spears 805 Series PVC Pipe Fitting Tee 3/4 NPT Female

This Spears schedule 80 PVC tee fitting is designed with female NPT threads on each end and is used for connecting and branching three pipes. The National Pipe Taper (NPT) threads create a tighter seal than straight threads. This T-shaped fitting has three openings, allowing for the connection and branching of three pipes - two on the main run and one branch at a 90-degree angle from the middle of the tee. The dimensions for tees are represented as A x B x C, with "A" and "B" indicating the main run on the fitting, and "C" indicating the branch.

Made of gray PVC (polyvinyl chloride), this fitting offers chemical and corrosion resistance, high strength, and a lighter weight than fittings made from metal. It is compatible with schedule 80 (thick wall) PVC pipes and fittings, making it suitable for various applications such as chemical processing, industrial plating, chilled water distribution, deionized water lines, as well as chemical drainage and wastewater treatment systems. Additionally, PVC can be connected to other materials such as steel, copper, or cast iron using transition fittings.

With a maximum operating temperature of 140 degrees F, this PVC tee fitting meets ASTM International D1784 and D2467 standards for quality assurance, and is certified by the National Sanitation Foundation International (NSF) for potable water service, making it suitable for conveying drinking water, waste water, chemicals, and other liquids in a range of industries.

Pipe fittings play a crucial role in various industries, serving as components for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping. When choosing pipe fittings, it is important to consider the application, as this will impact the material type, shape, size, and required durability. Fittings are available threaded or unthreaded, in various shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness).

As a company that produces thermoplastic fittings and valves for fluid, drain, waste, and vent systems, Spears Manufacturing, founded in 1969 and headquartered in Sylmar, CA, meets the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standard 9001.

Furthermore, this tee fitting with three openings features female NPT threads on each end for connecting pipes with male NPT threaded ends, making it a reliable choice for various applications that require chemical and corrosion resistance, high strength, and a lighter weight than metal fittings. Its versatility and compatibility with different materials, along with its certifications and compliance with standards, make it a valuable choice for a wide range of industries.
