Value Collection 401-131 Pvc Pipe Tee 1x1x3/4 in Sch 40

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 401-131 is a Schedule 40 PVC pipe tee designed for joining three sections of pipe in a branch configuration. It features a reducing run, connecting 1-inch pipe on both run ends to a 3/4-inch branch outlet. All three connections are female iron pipe thread (FIPT), allowing threaded male pipe or fittings to be installed directly without solvent cementing. At 0.87 pounds, this fitting is lightweight and easy to handle in tight spaces. It is used in low-pressure plumbing, irrigation, and water distribution systems where a threaded tee connection is required.

This tee is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, irrigation manifolds, and water supply branch lines. The Schedule 40 wall thickness meets standard pressure ratings for cold and ambient-temperature water service. FIPT connections make this fitting appropriate for applications where a removable, threaded joint is preferred over a solvent-welded connection. Plumbers and irrigation technicians commonly install this fitting in above-ground or accessible below-grade piping runs.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified irrigation technicians. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before making any connections. Apply PTFE tape or approved pipe thread sealant to all male threaded connections before assembly. Do not over-tighten PVC threaded fittings, as the material is susceptible to cracking under excessive torque.
