Tees

TEES PRODUCT OVERVIEW

High-integrity flow-branching solutions engineered to ensure structural continuity and reliable performance across process piping systems and high-pressure transmission networks.

1. PRODUCT RANGE

Standard & Specialty Branch Fittings

• Equal & Reducing Tees

Manufactured via advanced hydraulic cold forming or heavy-duty forging processes, ensuring uniform grain flow and high mechanical strength at critical stress concentration zones.

• Barred Tees

Designed for piggable pipeline systems, featuring internal guide bars precisely welded into the branch outlet, allowing safe passage of pipeline pigs without disrupting flow efficiency.

• Split Tees

Reinforced branch fittings engineered for hot-tapping applications, enabling safe pipeline branching under live, pressurized operating conditions without system shutdown.

• Lateral & Angled Tees

Designed for specialized pipeline configurations where fluid direction must be introduced at controlled angles to minimize turbulence, erosion, and pressure loss.

DIMENSIONAL CONFIGURATIONS

Size Range: 1/2″ to 60″ NPS, with capability for larger custom-engineered diameters.

Wall Thickness: Schedule 10S to XXS, including heavy-wall custom designs based on project design pressure requirements.

METALLURGY & MATERIAL SPECIFICATIONS

• Carbon Steel

ASTM A234 WPB / WPC for general process piping systems.

• Low-Temperature Carbon Steel

ASTM A420 WPL6 certified for cryogenic and sub-zero temperature service.

• High-Yield Pipeline Steel

MSS SP-75 WPHY 42 to WPHY 70 for high-pressure oil & gas transmission pipelines.

• Stainless & Alloy Steel

ASTM A403 WP304/L, WP316/L; ASTM A234 WP11, WP22, WP91 for high-temperature and corrosion-resistant applications.

2. MANUFACTURING & QUALITY CONTROLS

Stress Engineering & Finite Element Analysis (FEA)

For critical branch fittings subjected to complex mechanical and pressure loads, detailed engineering validation is performed in compliance with ASME B31.3 and ASME B31.8 codes.
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is used to simulate stress distribution, hydrodynamic forces, and structural integrity, ensuring safe performance under extreme operating conditions.

Hydrostatic Proof Testing

  • 100% of custom-fabricated tees and critical service components undergo hydrostatic pressure testing in accordance with ASME B16.9 and project specifications.
  • Testing ensures full pressure containment capability and confirms structural integrity under maximum allowable operating conditions.

Global Supply Chain Auditing & Quality Assurance

  • Sourcing Integrity: Raw materials including plates, billets, and forged bars are sourced exclusively from globally approved mills in Europe, Japan, and South Korea.
  • Material Certification: Full traceability provided in compliance with EN 10204 Type 3.1 and 3.2 certification standards.
  • Third-Party Inspection: All manufacturing stages, heat treatment processes, and NDT examinations (RT, UT, MT, PT) are independently verified by leading inspection bodies including DNV, Bureau Veritas, and Lloyd’s Register.
