Tee connector
A "Tee flange joint" typically refers to a specific type of flange connection used in piping and plumbing systems, which forms a "T"-shaped intersection between three pipes or tubes. It is commonly used to divert or combine the flow of fluids in a system.
In a tee flange joint, three pipes or tubes are joined together at right angles, with one of them forming the horizontal part of the "T" and the other two forming the vertical part. The flanges are used to connect these pipes or tubes securely and create a sealed junction.
Tee flange joints are used in various industries, including oil and gas, chemical processing, and water distribution, where it is necessary to split the flow from one pipe into two or combine the flows from two pipes into one. They come in various materials and sizes to suit different applications, and the choice of materials and specifications depends on factors like the type of fluid being transported, pressure requirements, and environmental conditions.
It's important to note that "Tee flange joint" may not be a widely recognized industry term, and the specific design and components used in such joints may vary depending on the context and industry. The term is used to describe the configuration where a T-shaped junction is formed using flanges to connect the pipes or tubes.
