The Male Branch Tee is a smartly engineered pipe fitting designed to connect three lines, two female-threaded and one male-threaded, at a 90-degree angle. It plays a vital role in routing systems where a male-threaded outlet is required off a main line, making it a perfect choice for pressure gauges, control valves, and instrumentation setups.
What makes the Male Branch Tee stand out is its versatility and compact design. With one branch configured as a male thread, it eliminates the need for extra couplings, making installations faster, neater, and more cost-effective. It’s available in a variety of materials such as Stainless Steel (SS 304/316), Brass, Carbon Steel, and Copper alloys, allowing it to handle corrosive fluids, gases, and high-pressure applications with ease.
This fitting is commonly found in industries such as oil & gas, chemical processing, hydraulic systems, and compressed air networks, where reliability, safety, and performance are non-negotiable.
