Hailiang HLGPEX-460-0050 Brass Pex Tee Insert 1/2 Inch

Product Description

The HAILIANG HLGPEX-460-0050 is a lead-free brass PEX tee insert fitting sized at 1/2 inch. It is designed for use in PEX tubing systems where a branch connection is required. The insert-style design barbs into the PEX tubing and is secured with a crimp ring or clamp ring, creating a reliable, leak-resistant joint. Its lead-free brass construction meets safe drinking water standards, making it appropriate for potable water distribution as well as general hydronic and plumbing applications. Plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing installations where 1/2-inch PEX tubing is used to branch off a supply line. Typical applications include domestic hot and cold water distribution systems, in-wall rough-in plumbing, and retrofit work where a new branch connection must be added to an existing PEX run. The lead-free brass material is compatible with both PEX-A and PEX-B tubing systems when paired with the appropriate crimp or clamp tool and rings.

Key Features

• Lead-free brass construction meets safe drinking water compliance requirements
• Insert tee design works with standard 1/2-inch PEX crimp rings and clamp rings
• Three-port tee configuration allows a branch takeoff from a continuous supply run
• Sized at 1/2 inch for compatibility with standard residential PEX supply piping

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard insert fitting for 1/2-inch PEX tubing systems in residential and light commercial plumbing applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code and local amendments. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before cutting into existing tubing. Use a calibrated PEX crimp or clamp tool rated for 1/2-inch fittings to secure rings to the proper insertion depth. Inspect each joint for full ring seating before restoring pressure.
