Tee Fitting Herz P 7226 11 — 26x3 / 16x2 / 20x2 pipe connections

Herz P 7226 11 — 26x3 / 16x2 / 20x2 pipe connections is a tee fitting engineered for piping systems that require a compact branch with three different diameters. The fitting joins a 26x3 main run with two branch ends sized 16x2 and 20x2, enabling a reliable mechanical connection for fluid distribution in heating, plumbing and service lines. Its design supports mixed-diameter joins commonly encountered in retrofits and new installations where space efficiency and correct alignment are needed.

Advantages

The tee fitting provides a robust mechanical connection across three pipe sizes, allowing installers to create branches without additional adapters. Its compact geometry reduces space requirements at junctions and simplifies pipeline routing. Constructed to industry standards for press and mechanical joining methods, the fitting ensures consistent sealing and alignment when installed correctly. Compatibility with common system media such as hot water and heating fluids makes it versatile for multiple applications.

Suitable for

• Heating distribution manifolds and radiator branches
• Domestic plumbing where different pipe diameters meet
• Service lines and technical rooms requiring compact branch connections
• Retrofitting existing pipelines to add a smaller or intermediate branch

Key specifications

• Main run diameter: 26 x 3 mm
• First branch diameter: 16 x 2 mm
• Second branch diameter: 20 x 2 mm
• Configuration: tee with three differing connection sizes
• Typical applications: heating, plumbing, service lines

How to use

Select the appropriate pipe ends matching 26x3, 16x2 and 20x2 dimensions and prepare pipe surfaces according to the chosen joining method (cut square, deburr, and clean). Position the fitting so that each pipe fully inserts into its respective socket or press zone, maintaining correct alignment and insertion depth. Complete the mechanical joint using the specified pressing or connection tool and follow the tool manufacturer's instructions for pressure and cycle settings. After joining, perform a leak test and system pressure test in accordance with applicable standards and project requirements.

Usage recommendations

Use compatible sealing elements and follow installation guidelines for press or mechanical connections; verify material compatibility with system fluids and perform pressure testing after installation to confirm integrity.
