The producer of mechanical pipe joining solutions, Victaulic, has launched its new Mechanical-T bolted branch outlet.
The style 422 stainless steel outlet creates a direct branch connection at any location a hole can be cut into a pipe. The mechanical tee contains a “holefinder” locating collar and pressure-responsive gasket, which helps ensures long-term reliability. The hole in the pipe is oversized to receive the locating collar, which secures the outlet in position and prevents the tee from moving once installed.
The stainless steel mechanical tee is used for highly corrosive environments as well as applications that require compliance with the Reduction of Lead in Drinking Water Act. It is also NSF Certified in accordance with ANSI/NSF 61 for cold and hot potable water service and ANSI/NSF 372.
