Product Description
Our Stainless Steel Tees are crafted from premium-grade stainless steel alloys such as 304, 304L, 316, and 316L. These grades are chosen for their exceptional resistance to oxidation and superior mechanical properties in demanding environments.
304 / 304L: Cost-effective, versatile austenitic stainless steel suitable for general industrial piping.
316 / 316L: Enhanced with molybdenum, these alloys resist pitting and crevice corrosion, ideal for chemical, marine, and high-corrosion applications.
316L, with its low carbon content, offers better weldability and minimizes sensitization in welded piping systems, making it ideal for high-integrity installations.

Our tees are engineered to withstand rigorous service conditions. Key mechanical highlights include:
Tensile Strength: Robust values consistent with ASTM A403 standards.
Yield Strength: High yield strength ensures structural integrity even under pressure fluctuations.
Impact Resistance: Excellent ductility and toughness, especially in welded applications.
From a thermal perspective, these stainless steel tees remain stable across wide temperature ranges:
High-Temperature Service: Suitable for piping systems that transport steam or hot fluids.
Low-Temperature Performance: Materials retain their mechanical strength even in cold or cryogenic environments.
We strictly adhere to global industry standards to guarantee reliability and performance:
Material Specification: ASTM A403 for stainless steel weld fittings.
Dimensional Tolerance: MSS SP-43 for lightweight schedules, ANSI B16.9 for heavier schedules.
Quality Control: Each piece undergoes beveling for welding prep, radiographic testing (RT), ultrasonic testing (UT), or magnetic particle inspection (MT) as required.
Traceability: Every tee is traceable via material certificate (MTR), heat number, and can be supplied with third-party inspection reports.
We offer a flexible variety of tee configurations to suit your piping system design:
Equal Tee: All three outlet ports are the same size — ideal for distributing flow symmetrically.
Reducing Tee: The branch (or run) port is of a different, typically smaller size — perfect for flow reduction or merging lines.
Barred Tee: Includes baffles or flow control plates to manage turbulence or flow partitioning (available upon request).
Connection options include:
Butt-weld: Seamless integration for high-pressure and permanent systems.
Threaded: Excellent for modular or serviceable systems; compatible with NPT / BSP threads.
Custom connections: Available upon request, depending on your system needs.
One of the most critical benefits of stainless steel is its natural corrosion resistance. Chromium in the alloy forms a passive oxide layer that protects against moisture, acids, salts, and other corrosive agents.
316 / 316L grades offer superior resistance in environments exposed to chlorides, marine conditions, or acid solutions.
Long Service Life: Thanks to this corrosion resistance, our tees minimize the need for frequent replacements, lowering maintenance costs over the lifecycle of your system.
Surface finish plays a vital role not only in performance but also in hygiene and welding integrity.
Shot Blasting: Ideal for industrial settings, creating a matte finish that hides weld seams.
Pickled / Passivated: Removes surface contaminants and restores the chromium-rich passive layer for maximum corrosion resistance.
Mirror / Polished Finish: Suitable for sanitary applications (food, pharma), delivering smooth, easy-to-clean surfaces.
These finishes ensure that your pipeline remains clean, reduces bacterial adhesion, and meets strict hygiene standards.
Our Stainless Steel Tees are engineered for a wide variety of industrial uses, such as:
Chemical Processing: Safely branch or merge lines carrying corrosive fluids.
Oil & Gas: Precision flow control in refineries, transport lines, or processing units.
Marine & Offshore: Withstand harsh, saline environments using 316-grade materials.
Power Generation: Reliable flow splitting in steam systems and high-pressure pipelines.
Food & Pharmaceutical: Sanitary design ensures clean fluid paths and compliance with hygiene regulations.
Water Treatment / HVAC: Durable, leak-resistant branching for water distribution and HVAC systems.
We understand that for B2B customers, quality and traceability are non-negotiable. That’s why we provide:
Material Test Reports (MTR): Chemical and mechanical certification for every batch.
NDT / Radiographic Testing: RT, UT, MT inspections ensure structural integrity.
Hydrostatic Testing: Validate pressure tightness before shipment.
Third-Party Inspection: Optional, by recognized international bodies.
Packaging & Traceability: Heat numbers, size marking, and protective end-caps included to protect during transport.
Durability & Longevity: Resistant to corrosion, high pressure, and temperature swings — reducing replacement frequency.
Cost Efficiency: Though the upfront cost may be higher than other materials, the long-term savings (maintenance, downtime) are significant.
Versatility: Multiple grade options and connection types fit many industrial systems.
Hygiene: Smooth, cleanable surfaces ideal for food, pharma, or sterile environments.
Precision Flow Control: Equal and reducing tees provide tailored flow distribution and branching.
Traceable & Reliable: Full certification, quality control, and third-party tests assure you of product integrity.
Established Expertise: Years of experience in manufacturing high-performance stainless steel fittings.
Full Traceability: We guarantee material provenance, test documentation, and consistent quality.
Customization: We can produce custom sizes, wall thicknesses, or special finishes per request.
Global Shipping: Experienced in international B2B logistics, export packaging, and compliance.
After-Sales Support: Technical consultation, QA support, and replacement services if needed.
Q1: Which stainless steel grade should I choose — 304 or 316?
A1: Use 304 for general-purpose applications where corrosion is mild. Choose 316 / 316L if your system involves chlorides, acids, or marine exposure — 316 has better pitting resistance.
Q2: Can these tees be welded on site?
A2: Yes. Our tees come with beveled ends ready for welding. For on-site welds, we recommend 316L for its superior weldability and reduced risk of sensitization.
Q3: What inspection and certification do you provide?
A3: We provide Material Test Reports (MTR), optional non-destructive testing (RT, UT, MT), and hydrostatic pressure testing. Third-party inspection can also be arranged.
Q4: Do you offer sanitary finishes for food/pharma use?
A4: Absolutely. We offer mirror-polished and pickled finishes that meet hygienic standards and facilitate cleaning.
Q5: What is your typical lead time?
A5: Lead time depends on size, grade, and certification requirements. Standard products usually ship within 15–45 days after order confirmation; customized fittings may take longer.
