Asc Engineered Solutions 362026007 Socket Weld Tee 1-1/2 in

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 362026007 is a forged steel socket weld tee rated for 3000 lb pressure class service. Designed for high-pressure piping systems, this fitting creates a branch connection in a run of pipe using socket weld joints on all three ends. The forged steel construction provides the mechanical strength and wall integrity required in demanding industrial and commercial piping applications. At 1-1/2 inches, it fits common pipe sizes used in process, utility, and mechanical systems. Licensed piping contractors and pipefitters install this fitting where threaded connections are not permitted and full-penetration welds are required by code or specification.

This tee is suited for high-pressure steam, hydraulic, gas, and liquid piping systems where socket weld fittings are specified. The 3000 lb pressure class rating makes it appropriate for ASME B16.11 socket weld service in industrial plants, commercial mechanical rooms, and process piping installations. It is used wherever a 90-degree branch takeoff is needed at 1-1/2 inch pipe size in high-integrity piping systems.

Key Features

• Forged steel construction for high-strength, high-pressure service
• 3000 lb pressure class rating suitable for demanding piping applications
• Socket weld end connections on all three ports for full-penetration weld joints
• 1-1/2 inch fitting size for standard pipe sizing
• Equal tee configuration provides a full-bore branch connection

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style socket weld fitting for use in 1-1/2 inch high-pressure piping systems where ASME B16.11 3000 lb class forged steel fittings are specified.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter or licensed piping contractor in accordance with ASME B31.1, B31.3, or the applicable piping code for the system. De-pressurize and isolate the piping system completely before cutting in or welding any fitting. Socket weld joints require proper fit-up with a small gap between pipe end and socket shoulder before welding to allow for thermal expansion. All welds should be inspected per the applicable code requirements before returning the system to service.
