Female Cross

A Female Cross is a four-way pipe fitting featuring female threads on all four ends, forming a “+” shape. It is designed to interconnect four pipes at right angles in two planes, allowing fluid or gas to branch out or converge from multiple directions in a compact space. This fitting is ideal for complex piping systems where balanced flow distribution is crucial.

Features

  • Four-Way Connection
    Provides a cross-shaped, 90-degree interconnection with female threads on all four ports for seamless piping integration.
  • High Pressure & Temperature Tolerance
    Engineered to withstand pressures up to 6000 PSI (varies by material and size) and temperatures ranging from −65°F to 800°F.
  • Thread Standards
    Available in NPT, BSPT, and BSPP threads for compatibility with global piping systems.
  • Corrosion Resistance
    Manufactured using materials like Stainless Steel (SS 304/316), Brass, and Carbon Steel, ensuring long service life in corrosive or aggressive environments.
  • Precision Machined Threads
    Accurate, leak-free threads help in secure assembly and efficient flow control.
  • Compact Design
    Enables space-saving installation in tight or complex piping layouts.
  • Customizability
    Available in various sizes (typically from 1/8” to 4”) and finishes; special material requests can be accommodated for specific industry needs.
  • Leak-Proof Performance
    Ideal for critical applications in oil & gas, chemical processing, water treatment, and pneumatic/hydraulic systems.
