Titanium pipe tees are butt-weld fittings used to connect three pipe branches at 90 degrees. Two configurations are standard: equal tees, where all three ends have the same nominal pipe size (NPS), and reducing tees, where the branch outlet is smaller than the two run ends. Reducing tees allow a smaller line to branch off a larger main without requiring a separate reducer and tee.

Tees are produced by forging bar or billet stock, then hot-forming and CNC-machining to final dimensions. Supply is reviewed per inquiry against standard, configuration (equal or reducing), NPS (run and branch), schedule, grade and quantity.

Specifications & Dimensions

Reviewed against your required standard, configuration and nominal pipe sizes.

S

Referenced Standards

ASME B16.9 is the primary standard for butt-weld tee dimensions and tolerances. ASME B16.28 for thin-wall fittings. ASTM B363 covers titanium pipe fittings including tees.

C

Configuration

Equal tees (NPS all ends same) and reducing tees (branch NPS smaller than run NPS). Custom reducing ratios — e.g. 10x10x6, 12x12x8 — evaluated per inquiry.

D

Size Range

Industry Standard: NPS ½ through NPS 24 per ASME B16.9.
Custom Manufacturing: Larger sizes above NPS 24 custom evaluated per forging capacity.
Actual Supply Availability: Confirmed per inquiry against grade, schedule and wall thickness.

Typical Application Areas

C

Chemical Branch Lines

Line branching for feed, product and utility connections in corrosion-resistant chemical plants.

H

Heat Exchanger Manifolds

Branch connections for distributing and collecting fluid across heat exchanger circuits.

D

Distribution Manifolds

Main-to-branch distribution in desalination, power and industrial process systems.

Quality & Documentation

Mill test certificates, inspection reports and other quality documentation can be discussed and confirmed with your inquiry, together with the standard, configuration, NPS (run and branch), schedule, grade and quantity.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the reducing tee size designation mean?

Reducing tees are designated as Run x Run x Branch. For example, a 6x6x4 tee has NPS 6 run ends and an NPS 4 branch outlet. Always specify all three sizes when ordering a reducing tee.

Do you supply unequal tees with custom branch sizes?

Yes — reducing tees are designated Run x Run x Branch; e.g. 6x6x4 means both run ends are NPS 6, branch is NPS 4. Custom reducing ratios — such as 10x10x5 or 12x12x3 — are evaluated per inquiry against forging and forming capacity.

Which standards apply to titanium tees?

ASME B16.9 is the primary standard for butt-weld tee dimensions. ASME B16.28 covers thin-wall fittings. ASTM B363 provides the material specification for titanium pipe fittings including tees. Confirm the standard at inquiry.
