Copper Equal Tee 15 mm VIEGA N24 – plumbing fitting for equal branch connections

VIEGA N24 Equal Tee 15 mm is a copper plumbing fitting designed for creating equal-diameter branch connections in potable water and heating systems. The 15 mm tee provides a corrosion-resistant junction for distributing fluid flow or creating branches in piping runs. Manufactured to standard plumbing dimensions, this copper equal tee is suitable for common joining methods recommended for copper fittings and is intended for residential and light commercial installations where reliable, leak-resistant connections are required.

Advantages

The VIEGA N24 equal tee is made from copper, offering natural corrosion resistance and good thermal conductivity. Its equal-diameter design simplifies planning and installation when all three pipe runs use the same size, reducing the need for adapters. The fitting is compatible with standard soldering and approved joining techniques for copper piping, providing strong joints and long service life under typical potable water and heating system conditions.

Suitable for

• Branching potable water supply lines
• Creating equal-diameter connections in heating circuits
• Residential plumbing and light commercial installations
• Retrofit work where matching 15 mm copper pipe is used

Key specifications

• Material: copper
• Connection type: equal tee for 15 mm tubing
• Intended media: potable water, heating fluids compatible with copper
• Operating environment: indoor plumbing and heating systems
• Suitable joining methods: soldering and manufacturer-recommended copper joining techniques

How to use

Prepare the 15 mm copper pipes by cutting squarely and deburring the ends. Clean pipe ends and fitting sockets to remove oxidation and contaminants before applying the chosen joining method. When soldering, apply appropriate flux and heat evenly until solder flows to form a complete, sealed fillet. Allow joints to cool naturally and then inspect for continuity and leaks by pressure testing the assembled piping according to applicable local codes and standards.

Usage recommendations

Use the VIEGA N24 equal tee with matching 15 mm copper tubing and follow local plumbing codes. Select the joining method approved for the installation environment and service temperature. Perform pressure and leak tests after installation and avoid exposing the fitting to dissimilar metals without proper isolation to prevent galvanic corrosion.
