Overview
Mild Steel Forged Socket Welded Tee is a carbon steel pipe fitting forged from mild steel billet, with three openings of the same bore for creating a 90° branch from a main pipeline or combining two lines into one. Pipe is inserted into each precision-machined socket and secured with fillet welds, forming a permanent, leak-resistant T-junction. The single-piece forged body delivers the strength and pressure integrity required in oil and gas, petrochemical, power and chemical plant piping where reliable branch connections are needed in compact small-bore systems.
Size Range
⅛" – 4" (NPS)
Pressure Class
3000# / 6000# (ASME B16.11)
Key Features
- Equal bore on run and branch — uniform flow distribution
- Three socket weld ends — pipe inserted and fillet welded at each opening
- Mild steel forged body — single-piece construction for high pressure integrity
- 90° branch connection in a compact T-shaped body
- Smooth internal bore reduces turbulence at the junction
- Precision-machined sockets for accurate alignment during welding
- 3000# and 6000# ratings per ASME B16.11
Benefits
- Permanent leak-resistant branch without threaded connections
- Socket supports pipe during welding — faster, cleaner fit-up
- Forged strength superior to cast tees in critical service
- Equal and reducing sizes, schedules and materials per specification
