PPSU Reducing Tee TECE 20 x 16 x 16 mm 8711004

PPSU Reducing Tee TECE 20 x 16 x 16 mm is a plumbing fitting made of high-performance PPSU designed to create a branch from a 20 mm supply line to two 16 mm outlets. The fitting provides a compact transition between pipe diameters and is intended for use in potable water and heating systems with compatible plastic piping. The material offers resistance to corrosion and to thermal and chemical stresses commonly encountered in building installations.

Advantages

The PPSU construction ensures long-term dimensional stability and good impact resistance at elevated temperatures. Its smooth internal surfaces reduce flow resistance and help maintain hydraulic performance. The reducing tee is compatible with a range of plastic pipe systems, providing secure joints that resist scale and corrosion. The compact design simplifies installation in confined spaces and helps achieve neat, reliable branching in distribution manifolds and risers.

Suitable for

• Domestic potable water distribution
• Underfloor heating and radiator connections with plastic pipes
• Manifold assemblies and branch lines in residential and commercial buildings
• Retrofit or new-build plumbing installations requiring a 20 mm to 16 mm branch

Key specifications

• Material: PPSU (Polyphenylsulfone)
• Connection configuration: reducing tee, one 20 mm inlet to two 16 mm outlets
• Application: cold and hot water distribution, heating systems
• Resistance: corrosion-resistant and chemical-resistant polymer
• Design: compact form factor suitable for confined installation spaces

How to use

Prepare the pipes by cutting squarely and deburring the ends. Verify compatibility between the PPSU reducing tee and the chosen plastic piping system, then insert and secure pipes according to the pipe system's joining method (e.g., push-fit, solvent or mechanical connection) recommended by the pipe manufacturer. Ensure proper alignment to avoid stress on the joint and follow local plumbing and heating installation standards when integrating the fitting into the system.

Usage recommendations

Use fittings and accessories from the same system family to ensure material compatibility and joint integrity. For hot water and heating circuits, confirm temperature and pressure ratings of the full system. Inspect joints visually after installation and pressure-test the system according to applicable standards before commissioning.
