This fitting uses socket weld (SW) end connections, which accept pipe inserted into the recessed socket before fillet welding, producing a strong, leak-resistant joint. It is commonly installed by pipefitters, industrial plumbers, and mechanical contractors working on process piping, steam lines, or other systems that demand permanent, welded fittings over threaded or press alternatives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tee is suited for small-bore piping applications at the 1\/2-inch nominal pipe size. Socket weld fittings at this size are standard in industrial, commercial, and institutional mechanical systems where reliability and pressure integrity are critical. The fitting is sold as a single unit and is appropriate for branch connections in run pipe at the same nominal diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch nominal pipe size for small-bore piping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSocket weld connections provide a permanent, fillet-welded joint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTee configuration allows a branch outlet at 90 degrees from the run\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold as a single fitting unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation socket weld tee for 1\/2-inch nominal piping systems requiring welded fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a qualified pipefitter or welder following applicable codes such as ASME B16.11 for socket weld fittings. Depressurize and drain the piping system fully before cutting into any existing line. Insert pipe to the bottom of the socket, then back off slightly before tack welding to allow for weld shrinkage. Do not skip gap clearance steps, as improper seating can lead to crevice corrosion at the socket joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Socket Weld (SW)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSelling Unit\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: CAPITOL MANUFACTURING\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12401005\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CAPITOL MANUFACTURING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68055560094002,"sku":"12401005","price":17.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/cebbbf1ccbc234014fa6828c70acdf83.png?v=1793005086","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/capitol-manufacturing-12401005-socket-weld-tee-1-2-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
