Whirlpool 69029131554 Threaded Tee 1/4 Inch 6000 Lb

Product Description

The WHIRLPOOL 69029131554 is a 1/4 inch forged steel threaded tee rated for 6000-pound class service. This fitting is manufactured to ASTM A105 carbon steel specifications, making it suited for high-pressure piping systems where threaded connections are required. The full-size tee configuration allows a branch outlet at 90 degrees to the run, directing flow in three directions within a single fitting body. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this class of fitting in steam, hydraulic, and high-pressure fluid systems where socket-weld or threaded carbon steel construction is specified by the design engineer or applicable code.

This fitting is applied in industrial and commercial piping installations where 6000-pound class forged fittings are called for. Typical applications include high-pressure steam lines, compressed air systems, hydraulic process piping, and other fluid-handling runs that exceed the pressure ratings of standard 150-pound or 300-pound malleable iron fittings. The 1/4 inch nominal thread size suits instrument connections, bypass lines, drain points, and small-bore branch takeoffs in larger piping systems.

Key Features

• 1/4 inch nominal threaded ends for direct pipe connection without welding
• 6000-pound pressure class forged construction for high-pressure service
• ASTM A105 carbon steel material for strength and temperature resistance
• Full-size tee body provides straight run and 90-degree branch outlet
• Forged steel construction resists deformation under cyclic pressure loads

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement forged threaded tee for high-pressure carbon steel piping systems requiring 1/4 inch ASTM A105 6000-pound class fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with ASME B31.1 or B31.3 and applicable local codes. Isolate and depressurize the piping system fully before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads per system fluid compatibility requirements. Tighten to hand-tight plus the number of turns specified by the pipe thread engagement standard for the fitting size — do not use thread sealant compounds incompatible with the process fluid.
