Description
A smaller branch in a single fitting
When a thinner line has to leave a thick pipe, a tee and a reducer are usually fitted. This 90° reducing tee from Atlas Pool does both jobs at once: its main ends have the larger diameter and the side outlet the smaller one. The result is fewer joints, fewer places to glue and a tidier installation. It is made of thick-walled UH-PVC and is glued to the pipes.

The manufacturer's full specification also includes larger combinations – with a main pipe up to Ø400 mm. For these, contact us for a price and lead time.
Installation
- Match up. Compare d1 and d2 with the pipes to be connected and decide which end of the fitting is meant for which pipe.
- Cut and clean. The cut must be square and the edge free of burrs.
- Glue. Degrease and apply a cement for rigid PVC (for example Tangit PVC-U).
- Assemble. Push the pipes in as far as they will go and watch which way the branch points.
