Legris 0108 08 17 Male Branch Tee 3/8 Bspt 8mm

Product Description

The LEGRIS 0108 08 17 is a brass compression male branch tee fitting designed for pneumatic and fluid distribution systems where a single tube line must be branched off a male-threaded port. It accepts 8mm outside diameter tubing on the compression ends and terminates with a 3/8 BSPT male thread, allowing direct connection to ported manifolds, valves, or equipment housings. Rated to 1450 psi maximum working pressure with a temperature range of -40 to 250 degrees F, this fitting handles demanding industrial and trade applications. Licensed HVAC technicians, instrumentation fitters, and industrial plumbers install this fitting in compressed air, pneumatic control, and fluid conveyance systems.

This fitting is suited for use in compressed air distribution, pneumatic control circuits, and industrial fluid lines where an inline branch connection is required at a threaded port. The BSPT thread standard makes it appropriate for European-standard and metric equipment commonly found in manufacturing, process control, and commercial HVAC pneumatic circuits. Its compact tee geometry allows branch takeoffs in tight panel or manifold installations without additional adapters.

Key Features

• Brass construction for corrosion resistance and reliable long-term sealing in compressed air and fluid service
• 3/8 BSPT male thread for direct connection to standard metric-threaded ports and manifolds
• 8mm tube OD compression ends accept standard metric pneumatic tubing without additional ferrules
• 1450 psi maximum working pressure suits industrial pneumatic and fluid distribution demands
• Wide temperature range of -40 to 250 degrees F supports both cold-environment and elevated-temperature applications
• Meets ATEX, CNOMO E07.21.115N, PED, Prop 65, REACH, and RoHS standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression branch tee for pneumatic and fluid systems using 8mm OD tubing with 3/8 BSPT male-threaded ports. Consult system schematics and equipment documentation to confirm thread standard and tube OD before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified fitter or pipefitter familiar with compression-style tube fittings and BSPT thread sealing practices. De-energize and depressurize the system fully before removing or installing any fittings. BSPT threads are self-sealing by design; use appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape per the equipment manufacturer and applicable plumbing or pneumatic codes. Do not overtighten compression nuts, as this can deform the tubing and compromise the seal.
