REHAU reduced branch tee 63-32-63 SDR 11 LX, plumbing pipe fitting

REHAU reduced branch tee 63-32-63 SDR 11 LX is a three-way plumbing pipe fitting designed to create a stepped branch connection between pipes with outer diameters of 63 mm and 32 mm. Manufactured for use with PE or compatible pressure pipes, this reduced tee provides a stable transition while maintaining the pressure rating corresponding to SDR 11 wall thickness. The fitting is intended for applications in water supply, irrigation and industrial piping systems where a reduction in diameter is required without introducing complex adapters.

Advantages

The reduced branch tee offers a compact and robust solution for forming a 63 to 32 mm branch with consistent wall thickness and pressure capacity. Its SDR 11 dimensioning ensures predictable hydraulic performance and mechanical integrity under standard operating conditions. The product simplifies installation by eliminating the need for multiple separate reducers and tees, reducing potential leak points and assembly time.

Suitable for

• Water distribution and supply networks
• Irrigation systems for agriculture and landscaping
• Industrial piping where a stepped branch is required
• Retrofitting or extending existing PE pressure pipe runs

Key specifications

• Connection diameters: main run 63 mm, branch 32 mm, opposite run 63 mm
• Wall thickness class: SDR 11
• Material compatibility: polyethylene (PE) and compatible pressure pipe materials
• Function: reduced three-way branch (tee) for pressure piping
• Typical applications: potable water, irrigation, industrial fluid conveyance

How to use

Select pipes with matching outer diameters and compatible material. Prepare pipe ends by cutting square and removing burrs or debris. Use the appropriate joining method specified for the pipe and fitting system (for example butt fusion or electrofusion if applicable for PE systems, or mechanical compression connections when specified by the manufacturer). Ensure alignment and correct insertion depth, then perform the fusion or connection according to established procedures and safety guidelines. After installation, pressure-test the assembly in accordance with local standards before placing into service.

Usage recommendations

Verify that the selected joining technique is compatible with the REHAU reduced branch tee and the specific pipe material. Follow local regulations for potable water or irrigation installations, maintain recommended working pressures for SDR 11 systems, and inspect joints periodically for integrity.
