TDM Brass Pressed Tee 1645, 20mm x 20mm x 16mm

The TDM Brass 1645 pressed tee is a professional-grade plumbing component designed for creating secure and durable branch connections in piping systems. Featuring a 20mm x 20mm x 16mm configuration, this fitting is engineered to provide a reliable transition between pipes of different diameters, ensuring optimal flow distribution in both water supply and heating installations.

Advantages

This brass pressed tee offers exceptional structural integrity and resistance to corrosion, making it a long-lasting solution for demanding plumbing environments. Its precision-engineered design ensures a tight, leak-proof seal that maintains system pressure and efficiency over time. The robust brass construction provides excellent thermal stability and mechanical strength, which is essential for maintaining the integrity of complex pipe networks under varying operational conditions.

Suitable for

• Residential water supply systems
• Heating and cooling circuit distribution
• Branching pipe lines in professional plumbing installations
• Connecting pipes of varying diameters

When it may not be suitable

This fitting is not intended for use in high-pressure industrial steam systems or environments where the chemical composition of the fluid may cause dezincification of the brass material. It should not be used in applications requiring specialized materials for aggressive or highly acidic media.

Key specifications

• Material: Brass
• Configuration: 20mm x 20mm x 16mm
• Angle of tilt: 90 degrees
• Connection type: Pressed

How to use

To install the TDM Brass 1645 pressed tee, ensure that the pipe ends are cut cleanly and deburred to prevent damage to the internal seals. Insert the pipes into the fitting until they reach the stop point. Use a compatible pressing tool with the correct profile to compress the fitting onto the pipe, creating a permanent and secure connection. Always verify that the connection is properly seated and free from debris before finalizing the installation.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the outer diameter of your existing pipes to ensure compatibility with the 20mm and 16mm ports.
• Ensure you have access to a professional-grade pressing tool suitable for this type of fitting.
• Confirm that the system pressure and temperature requirements align with the specifications of brass plumbing components.

Usage recommendations

Always perform a pressure test on the completed piping system before concealing the fittings behind walls or floors to ensure all connections are perfectly sealed and leak-free.
