Engineered to connect pipes of varying sizes seamlessly, the Series 523 Standard Tee with Reducing Transition ensures leak-free performance in demanding environments. Featuring a barbed mechanical design and hydraulic compression technology, this fitting strengthens under pressure while accommodating thermal expansion. Ideal for industrial, municipal, and utility applications, it supports sizes from 0.5" to 2" NPT and meets ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 standards. Includes a compression ring for reinforced joint stability.
Key Features & Benefits
- Reducing Transition Design: Connects pipes of different diameters, simplifying complex branching configurations.
- Pressure-Responsive Seal: Multi-level barbs expand under pressure to prevent leaks, even during thermal shifts.
- Zero-Lead Compliance: C954 Aluminum Bronze option meets strict safety standards for potable water systems.
- 50-Year Reliability: Built with a 2:1 safety factor at 73.4°F, certified to ASTM 1598/1599 and ARRA requirements.
Technical Specifications
- Sizes: 0.5”–2” NPT (ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 compliant).
