AGAflex plumbing tee TK 1/2" OX602 — 1/2-inch pipe fitting, brass/metal (model OX602)

AGAflex TK 1/2" (OX602) is a 1/2-inch plumbing tee made of brass/metal for water and heating installations. The fitting provides a T-shaped branch connection that allows three pipe sections to be joined in a single junction. It is intended for use in domestic and light commercial distribution systems where a reliable lateral outlet or flow split is required.

Advantages

The metal construction ensures mechanical durability and resistance to common plumbing stresses. The 1/2-inch size matches standard piping dimensions used for radiators, fixtures and branch lines, enabling straightforward integration with existing systems. The T shape simplifies the formation of branch circuits without requiring additional adapters, reducing installation time and connection complexity.

Suitable for

• Creating lateral outlets for radiators and convectors
• Splitting supply or return lines in heating systems
• Connecting fixtures such as sinks, basins or mixers to distribution runs
• Branching lines in domestic water supply and light commercial plumbing

Key specifications

• Nominal size: 1/2 inch (suitable for 1/2" piping)
• Shape: T-shaped branch fitting
• Material: brass/metal construction
• Connection type: standard pipe joint compatible with common 1/2" plumbing systems
• Application: potable water and heating distribution

How to use

Prepare the piping by cutting and deburring pipe ends to ensure a square, clean joint. Position the AGAflex TK 1/2" tee so that the main run and branch align with the intended flow directions. Install the fitting following the connection method appropriate for the piping system in use (for example, compression, soldering, press-fitting or threaded joint as applicable) and ensure all joints are tightened or secured according to installer guidelines. After assembly, perform a pressure test or system fill to check for leaks and verify correct flow distribution through the tee.

Usage recommendations

Use compatible 1/2" pipes and follow local plumbing codes and manufacturer guidance for jointing methods and pressure ratings. Inspect fittings for damage before installation and perform a pressure test after assembly. For systems with high temperatures or aggressive fluids, confirm material suitability before use.
