Compression Tees
A compression tee is an equal tee with compression connections on all three ends, used to take a branch of the same size from a PE coil pipe line.
It is used to branch off to plots on irrigation distribution lines and to take branches on mains. Equal-size models cover Ø20 – Ø63 mm.
Main Applications
- Irrigation distribution branches
- Plot separation points
- Mains branches
- Greenhouse line splits
- Livestock drinker supply lines

How to Choose?
- Determine the line sizeMeasure the outside diameter of the PE pipe to branch.
- Check the branch sizeAdd a reducer if the branch is a different size.
- Plan a valvePut a valve at the start of each branch.
- Tighten the ends in turnTighten the three nuts once the pipes are seated.
