The PERLA female tee fitting, sized 20mm x 3/4 inch, is a professional-grade plumbing component engineered for reliable and secure pipe connections. Designed for versatility, this tee allows for a 90-degree branch connection in water distribution systems, ensuring a consistent and leak-proof flow. Its robust polypropylene construction provides excellent resistance to environmental factors, making it a dependable choice for both residential and commercial plumbing infrastructures.

Advantages

This fitting stands out due to its high-pressure tolerance of up to 16 Bar, which ensures safety and stability in demanding water supply networks. The use of high-quality polypropylene material guarantees long-term durability and resistance to corrosion, which is essential for maintaining water quality. The precise 20mm to 3/4 inch internal thread configuration allows for seamless integration with existing piping systems, simplifying the installation process for professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike.

Suitable for

• Residential water supply systems
• Commercial plumbing installations
• Irrigation and garden watering networks
• Branching off main water lines

This fitting may not be suitable for high-temperature applications, such as hot water heating systems, as it is primarily designed for cold water distribution. It is also not intended for use with chemical or industrial fluids that may degrade polypropylene material over time.

Key specifications

• Diameter: 20 mm
• Connection type: 3/4 inch internal thread
• Material: Polypropylene
• Maximum pressure: 16 Bar
• Angle: 90 degrees
• Color: Blue and Black

To install the PERLA female tee, ensure the pipe ends are clean and free of debris. Insert the 20mm pipe into the compression side of the fitting until it is fully seated, then tighten the nut securely. For the 3/4 inch threaded side, apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male connector before screwing it into the internal thread of the tee to ensure a watertight seal. Do not overtighten the threaded connection to avoid damaging the plastic threads.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the outer diameter of your existing pipe matches the 20mm specification.
• Ensure the 3/4 inch thread type is compatible with your existing male connector.
• Confirm that the system pressure does not exceed the 16 Bar limit.
• Check that the application is for cold water use only.

For optimal performance and longevity, always ensure that the pipe is cut squarely and deburred before insertion into the fitting. Regularly inspect connections for signs of wear or leaks after initial installation.
