The Merit Brass tee is a stainless steel 316 socket weld cast pipe fitting for connecting and branching three sections of pipe or fittings. The socket weld tee has an internal recess on the inside diameter of each connection to allow for a smooth bore and better fluid flow between pipes. This tee is made of stainless steel 316, which is higher strength and more corrosion resistant than stainless steel 304. This fitting meets standards MSS SP-114, ANSI B1.20.1, and ASTM A351 for quality assurance. Pipe fittings are components used for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping in many different industries. When purchasing pipe fittings, consider the application, as this will affect material type, shape, size and required durability. Fittings are available threaded or unthreaded, in many shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness). Merit Brass manufactures pipe nipples following ISO 9001 standards for quality assurance. The company, family-owned since 1937 and headquartered in Cleveland, OH, distributes pipe fittings in the United States and Canada.
