This fitting creates a permanent, leak-free branch connection by heat-fusing the pipe directly into the socket ends. It is used in buried and above-ground PE piping applications where a reliable tee connection is required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on water distribution, geothermal, or gas service lines typically install this type of fitting using dedicated socket fusion tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tee is sized for 3\/4 inch IPS (Iron Pipe Size) polyethylene pipe and is suited for residential and light commercial piping installations. Socket fusion fittings are commonly used in applications where threaded or mechanical connections are not preferred, including potable water systems, irrigation, and low-pressure fluid transport. The IPS sizing makes this fitting compatible with standard PE piping used across a wide range of utility and service piping projects.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSocket fusion end connections for permanent, heat-fused joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTee configuration allows a branch connection off a main run\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/4 inch IPS sizing matches standard polyethylene pipe dimensions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for use with polyethylene pipe in buried or above-ground service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation fitting for 3\/4 inch IPS polyethylene piping systems requiring a socket fusion tee connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter familiar with socket fusion procedures. All pressure must be relieved and the system depressurized before cutting into an existing line. Proper socket fusion tooling — including a fusion iron, depth gauge, and pipe cutter — must be used to ensure correct melt depth and joint integrity. Follow ASTM F1056 or applicable local code requirements for socket fusion assembly and cooling times.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inch IPS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Socket Fusion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: IPS (Iron Pipe Size)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: NOMACO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: PESFT34\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NOMACO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51523350724914,"sku":"SFT34","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4be24a155131374d6893b3ac9ff2dc81.jpg?v=1785440439","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/nomaco-pesft34-socket-fusion-tee-3-4-inch-ips","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
