Product Introduction

 

 

 

Stainless steel male tee is a T-shaped threaded pipe fitting with external (male) threads on all three ports - one run-through axis and one branch outlet - allowing direct connection to female-threaded pipes, valves, or equipment without additional adapters. Leadtek manufactures this fitting to ISO 4144 in SS304 and SS316, covering nominal sizes from 1/4" to 2" (DN8 to DN50).

The all-male thread configuration makes this fitting the preferred choice wherever a branch line must tie into a main run at a straight junction and connect directly to internally threaded components. It is widely used in food processing, chemical handling, water treatment, and industrial plumbing systems where corrosion resistance and leak-free performance are non-negotiable.

Product Features
 

All-External Thread Configuration

All three ports carry male threads, enabling direct connection to female-threaded valves, unions, or pipe ends. This eliminates the need for intermediate adapters and simplifies assembly in tight piping layouts.

ISO 4144 Dimensional Compliance

Manufactured to ISO 4144 standards, ensuring dimensional interchangeability with fittings from other compliant suppliers. Thread options cover NPT (ANSI/ASME B1.20.1), BSPT/BSPP (BS21), and metric equivalents per customer market requirements.

SS304 and SS316 Material Options

Standard production runs in SS304 for general industrial and construction applications. SS316 (with 2–3% molybdenum content) is available for chloride-rich environments, marine service, or chemical media requiring enhanced pitting resistance. SS304L and SS316L low-carbon variants are also available on request.

Rated for Working Pressures up to 2 MPa

At ambient temperature (–20°C to 40°C), these fittings carry a non-shock maximum working pressure of 2 MPa, derated to 1.35 MPa at 220°C. Suitable for steam, air, water, oil, and non-flammable gas service (Class 150).

OEM & Customization

 

 

 

2026062417061644918

Leadtek accepts OEM and custom orders for stainless steel male tees outside standard ISO 4144 configurations. Custom scope includes non-standard reducing port combinations, special thread forms (e.g., left-hand threads, straight-to-taper transitions), surface finishes (electropolished, passivated, or PED-compliant), and private-label marking. Minimum order quantities apply for non-standard runs; tooling costs are assessed on a project basis. Submit a drawing or specification sheet through the inquiry form and our technical team will respond within one business day.

FAQ

 

Q: What is the difference between a male tee and a standard equal tee?

A: A standard equal tee has female (internal) threads on all three ports. A male tee carries external (male) threads on all three ports, allowing it to thread directly into female-threaded fittings, valves, or equipment housings. This eliminates the need for additional nipples or adapters at each connection point.

Q: Are your male tees available in both NPT and BSP thread forms?

A: Yes. We supply NPT threads to ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 and BSP threads (both BSPT taper and BSPP parallel) to BS21. JIS PT/PF and DIN R/Rp versions are also available. Please specify your required thread standard when placing an inquiry.

Q: What is the maximum working pressure for a 1/2" SS304 male tee at 100°C?

A: At 100°C, the non-shock maximum working pressure is 1.65 MPa for Class 150 fittings. This applies across all sizes in the standard range. For pressure service above 2 MPa at ambient temperature, please contact us for Class 300 or higher-rated options.

Q: Can I get SS316L instead of standard SS316?

A: Yes. SS316L (low-carbon) is available and is typically specified for welded assemblies that cannot be post-weld heat treated, or for applications with strict carbide precipitation restrictions. Advise your material requirement at the time of inquiry and we will confirm availability and lead time.
