KAN-therm brass press tee with press-fit ring 50×4 / 40×3.5 / 50×4 K-081106

Brass press tee KAN-therm K-081106 is a three-way fitting designed for press-fit connections in plumbing and heating systems. The fitting features two outlets sized 50×4 and one branch sized 40×3.5, enabling a durable branch connection between larger supply/return lines and a smaller distribution pipe. Manufactured from corrosion-resistant brass and intended for use with press-fit rings, this tee is suitable for potable water and central heating applications where secure, leak-resistant joints are required.

Advantages

The brass construction ensures long-term resistance to corrosion and mechanical wear while maintaining compatibility with common press-fit ring systems. Press-fit assembly provides quick installation and minimizes the need for open flames or soldering, reducing installation time and site hazards. The tee’s dimensional layout (50×4 / 40×3.5 / 50×4) allows reliable integration into mixed-diameter circuits and supports stable hydraulic performance in both potable water and heating systems.

Suitable for

• Residential and commercial potable water distribution
• Central heating systems with press-fit piping
• Branching supply or return lines to smaller distribution circuits
• Renovation projects where flame-free connections are required

Key specifications

• Material: corrosion-resistant brass
• Connection method: press-fit with press-fit rings
• Dimensions: two outlets 50×4 and one branch 40×3.5 (outer diameter × wall thickness in mm)
• Suitable media: potable water and heating fluids
• Application area: plumbing and central heating installations

How to use

Prepare pipe ends by cutting square and deburring the inner and outer edges. Slide the appropriate press-fit ring onto each pipe end, insert pipes fully into the tee until the shoulder is reached, and position the press-fit rings over the fitting joints. Use a compatible press tool with the correct jaw profile for the ring system to make each press connection according to the tool and ring manufacturer instructions. Verify each joint visually and, where applicable, perform pressure testing of the system following local codes and standards.

Usage recommendations

Store the fitting in a dry environment to avoid contamination of sealing surfaces. Use press-fit rings and pressing tools recommended by the system manufacturer. After installation, flush and pressure-test the system to confirm watertight joints and compliance with applicable plumbing or heating regulations.
