Brass reducing tee TECE 25 x 16 x 25 mm, model 760514

TECE brass reducing tee 25 x 16 x 25 mm model 760514 is a metal pipe fitting designed to join three pipes where the branch outlet has a smaller diameter. Manufactured from corrosion-resistant brass, it offers a durable junction for potable water and heating installations where a diameter reduction is required. The fitting is intended for use within plumbing systems to create a reliable, permanent connection between two equal-size runs and a reduced central branch.

Advantages

The brass construction provides good corrosion resistance and mechanical strength compared with many non-metal alternatives. The reducing tee allows a secure transition between pipe sizes without additional adapters, saving installation space and simplifying the layout of distribution runs. Its solid-metal body ensures long-term dimensional stability under typical domestic and commercial water and heating system conditions.

Suitable for

• Potable water distribution where a downsize branch is required
• Domestic and commercial heating system pipework
• Connections between copper, brass or compatible metal pipes of matching dimensions

Key specifications

• Material: brass (corrosion-resistant)
• Connections: three-way tee with reducing central branch
• Dimensions: 25 mm x 16 mm x 25 mm (run x branch x run)
• Application: potable water and heating systems
• Construction: solid-metal fitting designed for permanent joints

How to use

Prepare pipe ends according to the pipe type and the chosen joining method (soldering, compression, press-fit or threaded, depending on the system and compatible with brass fittings). Ensure pipes are clean, deburred and cut square. Insert and align the fitting with the pipes, then complete the joint using the appropriate technique and tools specified by the pipe and system manufacturer. Verify alignment and pressure-test the system after installation to confirm a leak-free connection.

Usage recommendations

Use the reducing tee only with compatible pipe materials and joining methods recommended for brass fittings. Follow local codes for potable water and heating installations and perform appropriate leak and pressure tests after installation. Avoid exposure to aggressive chemicals that can affect brass over time.
