Mueller Streamline TEE00181 Copper Tee 1/2x1/2x1/2 90 Degree

Product Description

The MUELLER STREAMLINE TEE00181 is a 90-degree copper tee fitting designed for soldered plumbing connections. It joins three copper lines at equal 1/2-inch connections using a standard 50/50 solder joint method. The fitting measures 1.58 inches in length, 1.13 inches in width, and 0.69 inches in height, with a lightweight construction at 0.06 pounds. It meets NSF, UL, and UR standards, making it appropriate for potable water and general plumbing systems. Licensed plumbers and pipe fitters install this type of fitting during new construction, remodel, or repair work on residential and light commercial copper piping systems.

This tee fitting is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where copper pipe distribution lines require a branch connection. The equal 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 inch configuration makes it a common choice for supply line branches in domestic water systems, hydronic heating distribution, and similar copper piping runs. The solder-joint connection style is consistent with standard sweat-fitting practices used throughout the trade.
