AAP Buttweld Reducing Tee, 8" x 6"

This AAP buttweld reducing tee is made from carbon steel to ASTM A234 WPB, ANSI B16.9. It is supplied in 8 sizes, 2 x 1" (50 x 25mm) to 8 x 6" (200 x 150mm). A reducing tee has a branch that is smaller than the main run, so a pipe run can branch off at right angles in a smaller size. Sizes are given as the larger (run) size first, then the smaller.

The buttweld range is carbon alloy steel to ASTM A234 for use in various piping systems. Advantages of buttweld: a welded fitting is permanently leak proof, the continuous metal between pipe and fitting adds strength, the smoother inner surface and gradual direction changes reduce pressure loss, turbulence, corrosion and abrasion, and a welded system uses a minimum of space.
