Tigre Usa Inc 1402-210 Poly Insert Tee 1-1/2x1-1/2x3/4

Product Description

The TIGRE USA INC 1402-210 is a polyethylene insert tee fitting designed for cold-water distribution lines. It connects 1-1/2 inch barb inlets to a 3/4 inch female iron pipe (FIP) branch outlet, allowing a controlled branch takeoff from a PE polyethylene main line. The fitting seats inside the pipe and is secured with stainless steel clamps, creating a reliable mechanical connection without solvent cement or heat fusion. This fitting ships in a package quantity of 10 units and weighs 2 pounds per package. Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified waterworks contractors working on polyethylene piping systems.

This insert tee is intended for cold-water service only in non-dwelling applications such as agricultural irrigation, commercial site water distribution, and outdoor utility supply lines. It is not rated for use with compressed air or gases. Per manufacturer requirements, this fitting must not be installed in a residential dwelling. It is listed under ASTM D-2609 and certified to NSF 14 and NSF 61 standards for potable water service, making it appropriate for systems where water quality compliance is required.

Compatibility

Designed for use with PE polyethylene pipe in cold-water distribution systems. Not for use in dwellings. Any modification to the fitting voids the manufacturer warranty.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified contractor familiar with polyethylene piping systems. Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure completely before cutting into an existing PE line. Secure the insert fitting with appropriately sized stainless steel clamps torqued per clamp manufacturer specifications. Do not use this fitting with compressed air, gases, or any hot-water application — doing so creates a safety hazard and voids all applicable listings.
