Branch Fittings
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Industrial Grade Branch Fittings Manufactured to Global Standards
Branch fittings, also referred to as Olets, are used to connect a smaller branch pipe to a larger header pipe. They’re preferred over standard tees when the branch size is considerably smaller than the header, or where the pressure requirements call for reinforced connections. The joint produced is strong and resistant to leaks, and the fittings are built to handle high mechanical stress in demanding piping systems. Materials vary depending on the application: stainless steel, carbon steel, duplex steel, and high nickel alloys are all common. Manufacturing follows international standards including MSS SP-97 and ASME B16.11.
