Copper press reducing tee SANHA 28 x 22 x 28 mm for gas systems

Copper press reducing tee SANHA 28 x 22 x 28 mm for gas systems is a copper fitting designed to create a reduced branch between two 28 mm runs and a 22 mm branch using press-type connections. Intended for gas distribution installations, the fitting enables a solder-free, mechanically pressed joint method that reduces installation time and provides leak-tight connections when used with appropriate press tools and certified press rings. The compact tee body is manufactured to meet the dimensional requirements of copper piping systems and to integrate with standard press fittings in gas applications.

Advantages

The SANHA reducing tee offers a reliable press connection that eliminates the need for flame-based joining, improving safety during installation in gas environments. Its reducing design allows one fitting to transition between pipe sizes while maintaining consistent flow direction. The copper construction provides corrosion resistance and thermal conductivity appropriate for building gas systems. The press connection method delivers repeatable, strong joints compatible with industry-standard pressing equipment when installed according to manufacturer guidelines.

Suitable for

• Indoor and enclosed gas distribution branches in residential buildings
• Commercial gas service installations requiring downsizing of pipe runs
• Applications where solder-free, mechanically pressed joints are preferred
• Renovation and retrofit projects that need a compact reducing tee

Key specifications

• Material: copper suitable for gas system fittings
• Connection type: press joints for mechanical pressing
• Dimensions: 28 mm x 22 mm x 28 mm (run x branch x run)
• Application: gas distribution installations
• Design: reducing tee for branch and downsizing

How to use

Prepare copper pipe ends by cutting square and deburring internally and externally. Mark insertion depth on the pipes if required by the press system. Position the reducing tee on the prepared pipe ends and ensure full insertion to the marked depth. Use a certified press tool and the correct press jaw or ring size for the 28 mm and 22 mm connections, performing the pressing operation according to the tool and fitting manufacturer instructions. After pressing, visually inspect each joint for complete compression and, where applicable, perform pressure testing in line with local gas installation regulations before placing the system into service.

Usage recommendations

Use only certified press tools and jaws compatible with copper gas fittings, follow local gas codes for installation and testing, and ensure all work is carried out or inspected by qualified personnel. Store fittings in a dry environment and avoid mechanical damage to sealing surfaces prior to installation.
