Perfexim press-fit tee 73C 25×16×25 mm (model 62-73C-2516-000)

Perfexim press-fit tee 73C 25×16×25 mm is a T-branch fitting designed for press-fit plumbing systems that join pipes with 25 mm and 16 mm outer diameters. The fitting enables solder-free connections using press tools and provides leak-resistant joints suitable for potable water and heating circuits. Its compact shape and standardized dimensions make it compatible with common press fittings and facilitate installation in confined spaces.

Advantages

This press-fit tee offers a secure mechanical connection without the need for soldering or welding, reducing installation time and heat-related risks. The design provides reliable sealing under typical domestic water and heating system pressures and ensures consistent joint quality when installed with appropriate press tools. The mixed-diameter configuration allows straightforward branching between 25 mm and 16 mm lines without additional adapters.

Suitable for

• Domestic and commercial potable water distribution
• Central heating system piping
• Creating T-branches where a 16 mm line taps from 25 mm main pipe
• Retrofitting or extending existing press-fit installations

Key specifications

• Fitting type: press-fit tee (T-branch)
• Connection method: press-fit (mechanical press joint)
• Pipe diameters: 25 mm × 16 mm × 25 mm (outer diameters)
• Material: corrosion-resistant metal suitable for potable water and heating (as per manufacturer standard)
• Applications: potable water and heating systems
• Designed for use with compatible press tools and jaws

How to use

Prepare pipe ends by cutting square and removing burrs, then mark insertion depths as indicated by the fitting. Insert the 25 mm and 16 mm pipes fully into the respective ends of the tee until they meet the internal stops. Use the correct press tool and jaw size specified for 25 mm and 16 mm press fittings to make the mechanical joint, following the tool manufacturer's instructions for pressing time and force. After pressing, inspect each joint visually and, where applicable, perform a pressure test in accordance with local codes to confirm leak-tightness.

Usage recommendations

Use manufacturer-recommended press profiles and calibrated pressing equipment. Ensure compatibility between the fitting material and the pipe type, and follow local plumbing standards for potable water and heating systems. Avoid exposure to aggressive chemicals and install in locations accessible for inspection and testing.
