Tee Fitting IBP PC5130 for Central Heating, 15 mm

IBP PC5130 for Central Heating, 15 mm is a copper tee fitting engineered for creating a reliable T-branch in 15 mm pipe networks used in central heating and hot-water circulation systems. The fitting is intended to join three 15 mm pipelines with a consistent internal profile and wall thickness suitable for radiator connections, boiler feeds and distribution manifolds. It is compatible with common installation methods such as soldering or other joining techniques specified in the heating system design.

Advantages

The tee fitting offers a compact and durable connection point that maintains flow characteristics across all three branches. Manufactured from copper to provide corrosion resistance and thermal conductivity appropriate for heating systems, it supports standard 15 mm copper piping dimensions. Its geometry ensures straightforward alignment and reduces the need for additional adapters when integrating radiators, manifolds or boiler connections.

Suitable for

• Branching 15 mm copper pipe runs in central heating systems
• Connecting radiators to the main circulation loop
• Boiler feed and return connections where a T-branch is required
• Distribution manifolds and compact installation spaces

Key specifications

• Material: copper
• Connection size: 15 mm (three ports)
• Function: T-branch for hot-water and central heating circulation
• Compatibility: designed for standard 15 mm copper pipe
• Typical joining method: soldering or system-specified techniques

How to use

Prepare the pipe ends by cutting square and deburring to ensure full contact. Fit the tee onto the pipes, ensuring correct alignment of the three branches. Perform soldering or the specified joining method following applicable regulations and manufacturer or system design instructions. After joining, inspect the joints and pressure-test the circuit according to accepted heating-system testing procedures before commissioning.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate flux and solder for copper heating systems, and ensure work is carried out by a qualified installer or according to local plumbing and heating codes. Verify material compatibility with any system components and conduct a pressure test after installation.
