A tee is a prevalent pipe fitting available in diverse types such as all female thread sockets, all solvent weld sockets, or opposed solvent weld sockets with a side outlet possessing female threads. This T-shaped pipe fitting, featuring two 90° outlets, serves to combine or split fluid flow by either connecting pipes of varying diameters or altering the direction of pipe runs. Manufactured from various materials and sizes with diverse finishes, tees are extensively utilized in pipeline networks for transporting two-phase fluid mixtures. Tees are categorized into equal and unequal based on branch size compared to header pipes. The most common types include straight, reducing, double branch, double branch reducing, conical, double branch conical, bullhead, conical reducing, double branch conical reducing, tangential, and double branch tangential tees.
