Overview

1/2. div class"aplus"pThe NIBCO 402 schedule 40 tee pipe fitting is made of PVC and has slip connections and a female National Pipe Taper (NPT) threaded connection. This tee fitting is T-shaped and has three openings to connect and branch three pipes, two on the main run and one branch at a 90-degree angle from the middle of the tee. Pipe dimensions for tees are represented as A x B x C. "A" and "B" indicate the main run on the fitting, and "C" indicates the branch. It has female slip ends on the main run for sliding over male unthreaded pipes and female NPT threads on the branch outlet for connecting to a male threaded pipe. The NPT threads create a tighter seal than straight threads, and the slip ends connect to pipes with a smooth bore for enhanced flow. This schedule 40 (standard wall) fitting is made of PVC for corrosion resistance, high strength, and less weight than fittings made from metal. It is compatible with schedule 40 PVC pipes and fittings and is suitable for cold-water pressure distribution systems including irrigation, pool and spa, potable water, and chilled water applications. PVC can be connected to other materials such as steel, copper, or cast iron using transition fittings. This fitting provides superior flow to metal because of its smooth interior finish, which reduces friction and inhibits buildup of materials. This fitting meets American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) D2466 and D1784 specifications for quality assurance./ppPipe 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)./ppNIBCO manufactures flow-control products for construction, industrial, fire protection, and irrigation applications. The company, founded in 1904, is headquartered in Elkhart, IN, and meets International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 9001 standards for quality assurance./p/div Brand Name: Charlotte PipeSchedule Type Number: Schedule 40End 1 Diameter: 1/2 in.End 1 Type: SlipEnd 2 Diameter: 1/2 in.End 2 Type: SlipMaterial: PVCProduct Type: TeeANSI Certified: NoOutlet: SlipColor Family: WhiteIAPMO Certified: YesNSF Listed: YesEnd 3 Diameter: 1/2 in.End 3 Type: FPTCompatibility: Used in Pressure SystemsApplication: Pressure ApplicationsFits For: For Pressure ApplicationsNumber in Package: 1 pkCompatible Pipe Material: PVCMaterial Type: PVCUnderground Rated: NoPackaging Type: BoxedAverage Lead Content: Lead-FreeDiscovery ACC, CON, NBR, SUP, EXP.
