Nomaco PEBFT114 Butt Fusion Tee 1-1/4 Inches

Product Description

The NOMACO PEBFT114 is a 1-1/4 inch butt fusion tee designed for polyethylene piping systems. This fitting joins three sections of PE pipe using a heat-fusion process that creates a continuous, leak-free connection without mechanical fasteners or solvents. Butt fusion tees are a standard component in pressurized fluid distribution systems where joint integrity and long-term resistance to pull-out are required. Installation is performed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on underground or above-grade PE piping runs.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial applications involving polyethylene pipe distribution systems. Common install scenarios include potable water service lines, irrigation mains, and low-pressure fluid transfer lines where a branch takeoff is needed. The butt fusion joining method makes this tee appropriate for systems where solvent cement or threaded connections are not acceptable and where a fully fused, monolithic joint is specified.

Key Features

• 1-1/4 inch nominal size for standard PE pipe butt fusion connections
• Heat-fusion joining eliminates mechanical fittings and potential leak points
• Tee configuration allows branch takeoff from a straight piping run
• Compatible with butt fusion equipment sized for 1-1/4 inch PE pipe

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1-1/4 inch polyethylene piping systems using butt fusion joining methods.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a qualified plumber or pipefitter using a butt fusion machine rated for 1-1/4 inch PE pipe. The pipe and fitting faces must be clean, squared, and brought to proper fusion temperature before joining per the fusion equipment manufacturer's procedure. Depressurize and isolate the line before cutting into any existing system. Follow applicable plumbing codes including IPC and local authority requirements for PE pipe fusion work.
