Value Collection 401-060 Pvc Pipe Tee 6 in Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 401-060 is a 6-inch Schedule 40 PVC pipe tee designed for use in pressure and drain piping systems across residential and commercial installations. Constructed from PVC, this fitting offers reliable corrosion resistance in a wide range of water and chemical service applications. The tee features female iron pipe thread (FIPT) connections on all three ports, allowing it to thread directly onto male-threaded pipe ends without additional adapters. At 9.52 pounds, this is a substantial fitting suited for mainline branch connections where a durable, code-compliant split is required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this size fitting.

This tee is appropriate for use in Schedule 40 PVC piping systems found in commercial plumbing, industrial process lines, irrigation mains, and large-diameter residential supply or drain configurations. The 6-inch diameter makes it a common choice for building main supply branches, municipal service connections, and agricultural irrigation manifolds. All three FIPT ports accept standard male NPT-threaded pipe, making field assembly straightforward with compatible threaded PVC or transition fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation of this fitting should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the supply line fully before threading or removing any fittings. Use an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for PVC on all NPT connections and tighten to hand-tight plus the number of turns specified by the sealant manufacturer — do not over-torque PVC threads. Pressure-test the assembled system before returning it to service.
