  • 2-1/2 inch pipe size fits standard industrial piping networks

2-1/2" Black Forged Steel Socket Weld Tee

This 2-1/2 inch tee is a forged steel pipe fitting designed for socket weld connections in industrial piping systems. It meets ANSI B 1.20.1, ASME B 16.11 and SA105, and ASTM A105 standards for pressure-rated components. The fitting carries a Class 3000 rating with a maximum pressure of 3000 psi at 72 degrees F. It suits installers building or modifying high-pressure steam, oil, or gas lines.

Installers needing a Class 3000 socket weld branch

This fitting suits piping crews who require a forged steel tee rated for 3000 psi at 72 degrees F with socket weld ends. It is not for systems that demand a higher pressure class or a different end preparation such as threaded or butt weld connections. Buyers needing other pipe diameters or fitting configurations should select a different part.

Class 3000 pressure rating at 72 degrees F

The single specification that decides fit is the Class 3000 rating, which allows a maximum working pressure of 3000 psi at 72 degrees F. Verify that the system design pressure and temperature fall within this limit before specifying the tee. The ASTM A105 material certification and ASME B 16.11 dimensional standard support code compliance for this pressure class.

Questions about this item

What pipe schedule do I need for the socket-weld connection on this 2-1/2 in Class 3000 tee?

The tee is rated Class 3000 and built to ASME B16.11 and ASTM A105; the mating pipe must be of a schedule that matches the Class 3000 socket-weld bore and wall thickness.

Will this forged-steel tee thread onto older NPT pipe I already have?

No, the connection type is socket weld, not threaded; it cannot join directly to NPT pipe without a separate adapter.

How can I verify the tee is holding pressure after installation?

Pressurise the system up to 3000 psi at 72 °F and check for leaks; the fitting meets ANSI B1.20.1, ASME B16.11 and SA105/ASTM A105 standards.
