Equal Tee

Stainless Steel Gaskets

The equal tee is a versatile fitting used in piping systems to create a branch or a junction where three pipes of the same diameter intersect. This fitting allows for the efficient distribution of fluid flow from a single pipe into two other pipes, maintaining equal pressure and flow rates across the branches. Equal tees are commonly employed in various industries, including water treatment, oil and gas, and chemical processing, where balanced flow distribution is crucial.


Constructed from durable materials, equal tees are designed to withstand high pressures and temperatures, ensuring reliability in demanding environments. Their equal diameter design ensures a uniform flow path and reduces potential turbulence, which helps in maintaining system efficiency. Complying with industry standards such as ASTM, ASME, and ANSI, these fittings offer long-term performance and durability. The robust construction and precise manufacturing of equal tees make them an essential component for maintaining balanced fluid distribution in piping systems.
