Threaded Tee – Forged Pipe Fitting for Reliable Flow Branching
A Threaded Tee is a critical forged pipe fitting used to divide, combine, or redirect flow within a piping system. Featuring three internally threaded outlets arranged in a T-shape, this fitting enables efficient branching while maintaining pressure balance across the system. Threaded tees are especially valuable in installations where welding is not practical or permitted, offering flexibility, ease of maintenance, and secure connections.
At AstroForge Fitting Industries, we manufacture forged Threaded Tees that meet stringent international quality requirements. Our fittings are produced in compliance with ASME B16.11, MSS SP-79, MSS SP-83, MSS SP-95, MSS SP-97, and BS 3799 standards, ensuring dimensional accuracy, pressure integrity, and long service life. Designed for industrial reliability, our threaded tees perform consistently under demanding operating conditions.
Forged Construction for Superior Strength
Unlike cast fittings, forged Threaded Tees offer superior mechanical strength and resistance to fatigue, impact, and pressure fluctuations. The forging process refines the grain structure of the material, resulting in improved toughness and durability. This makes forged threaded tees suitable for moderate to high-pressure applications across a wide range of industries.
Each threaded tee is precision-machined to ensure accurate female threading, enabling leak-proof connections when used with appropriate thread sealants. This precision also allows easy assembly and disassembly, making threaded tees ideal for systems that require regular inspection, modification, or maintenance.
Size Range and Compatibility
AstroForge Threaded Tees are available in sizes ranging from 1/8″ to 4″ (DN6–DN100), making them compatible with a broad range of piping systems. These fittings are designed to integrate seamlessly with standard threaded pipes and components, ensuring hassle-free installation across new projects and retrofit applications.
Threaded tees are commonly used in compact piping layouts where space constraints demand efficient flow distribution without complex welding operations. Their standardized dimensions ensure interchangeability and consistent performance across installations.
Wide Range of Industrial Applications
Threaded Tees are widely used in industries where reliability and system integrity are essential. Typical applications include:
Oil and Gas pipelines for fluid and gas distribution
Petrochemical and Chemical Processing plants
Water Treatment and Utility Systems
Power Generation and energy facilities
Compressed Air and Steam Lines
General Industrial Piping Systems
These fittings are suitable for handling a variety of media, including water, oil, gas, steam, and chemical fluids, depending on material selection and operating conditions.
Easy Installation and Maintenance
One of the key advantages of a Threaded Tee is its ease of installation. Since no welding is required, installation time is reduced, and on-site labor costs are minimized. Threaded connections also allow components to be removed or replaced without cutting or damaging the pipeline, making maintenance faster and more cost-effective.
This flexibility makes threaded tees particularly useful in temporary systems, modular installations, and locations where hot work is restricted.
Quality Assurance and Reliability
All Threaded Tees manufactured by AstroForge Fitting Industries undergo strict quality control procedures to ensure compliance with dimensional, mechanical, and visual standards. Advanced forging techniques, combined with precision machining and inspection, guarantee consistent performance and reliability in real-world applications.
Whether used in high-pressure industrial pipelines or general-purpose systems, AstroForge Threaded Tees deliver secure connections, long service life, and dependable performance.
