Hailiang HLGPEX-460-0170 Brass Pex Tee Insert Lead-free

Product Description

The HAILIANG HLGPEX-460-0170 is a lead-free brass PEX tee insert fitting used to create a three-way branch connection in PEX tubing systems. The reducing tee accepts a 1-inch run on the main line and two 3/4-inch branch or outlet ends, making it suitable for supply line transitions and zone distribution in residential and light commercial plumbing. Constructed from lead-free brass, it meets potable water safety requirements. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting using standard clamp or crimp PEX tools on copper, barrier, or non-barrier PEX tubing.

This fitting is appropriate for domestic hot and cold water distribution systems where a reducing branch tee is required. The insert-style design seats inside the PEX tubing and is secured with a ring using a crimp or clamp tool, providing a reliable, leak-resistant joint. It is commonly used during rough-in work in residential construction, remodel projects, and repair applications where PEX tubing is the primary pipe material.

Installation Notes
