Value Brand

Value Brand 1/4 in FNPT 316 Stainless Steel Threaded Tee coupling

SKU CH-BD86-2C7CD

1/4 in FNPT 316 stainless steel tee joins three pipe runs at 90° with 3000 psi pressure rating

  • 316 stainless steel resists corrosion
  • 3000 psi rating at 100°F handles high pressure
  • 90° branch splits or combines flow
  • Female NPT threads on all three ends
  • Meets ASTM A182 and ASME B16.11 standards

316 Stainless Steel 1/4" FNPT Tee

This Zoro Select fitting joins three 1/4 inch NPT pipe runs in a T configuration. All three ports feature female National Pipe Thread connections with 18 threads per inch. The body is machined from 316 stainless steel for corrosion resistance in demanding fluid or gas systems. It meets ASTM A182 material requirements and ASME B16.11 dimensional standards.

For pipe systems needing a 90-degree branch

Installers splitting or combining flow in hydraulic, pneumatic or steam lines up to the rated pressure will find this tee suitable. The 316 alloy handles chlorides and acids better than lower grades. Builders requiring larger port sizes, different thread types or pressure ratings beyond Class 3000 must select another fitting.

Pressure rating decides fit for the application

Maximum allowable internal pressure is 3000 psi at 100°F and maximum steam pressure is 2500 psi at 350°F. These limits determine whether the tee matches the system design conditions. Verify the operating temperature and media against these figures before installation.

Questions about this item

Which size and thread type should I choose for a 1/4 inch NPT piping system?

This tee fitting uses 1/4 inch nominal pipe size with female NPT threads on all three ends, matching standard 1/4 inch NPT piping directly.

What does the 3000 psi rating mean when the fitting is installed in a working system?

The 3000 psi rating is the maximum allowable internal pressure at 100°F; at 350°F the maximum steam pressure drops to 2500 psi.

Which thread standard does the 18 threads per inch NPT connection follow, and what does it cap in practice?

The threads conform to ANSI/ASME B1.20.1, providing a tapered seal that is pressure-rated to 3000 psi at 100°F and 2500 psi steam at 350°F.
