What is upvc Tee 6″ GM ?

 

UPVC Tee 6″ GM Pressure Schedule 40 fitting is a rigid pipe fitting used to connect three sections of pipe of equal diameter (6 inches) in a T-shaped junction, typically for pressure piping systems. It is made of un plasticized polyvinyl chloride (UPVC), offering excellent chemical resistance, corrosion resistance, and mechanical strength.

Specifications

• Material: UPVC (Un plasticized Polyvinyl Chloride)

• Size: 6 inches nominal diameter (Iron Pipe Size standard)

• Schedule: 40 (standard thickness for pressure pipes)

• Color: Light gray

• Pressure Rating: Schedule 40 UPVC pipes and fittings typically support a maximum working pressure around 220 psi (15.5 bar) at 23°C for 6-inch size

• Standards: Manufactured to ASTM D1784 for material, ASTM D2466 for fittings, and ASTM D1785 for pipes

• Length: Typically manufactured in 6-meter pipes; fittings sized accordingly

Description

The 6-inch UPVC tee is designed to join three pipe sections at a right angle junction, allowing for fluid distribution, branching, or combining flows in plumbing, irrigation, chemical transport, and potable water systems. Schedule 40 thickness ensures sufficient wall strength for common pressure applications. UPVC material offers resistance to a wide range of chemicals, UV light degradation (with stabilization), and no bacterial growth, making it suitable for potable water and industrial applications.

Usage

• Plumbing and potable water distribution in residential, commercial, and industrial applications

• Chemical processing and transport where UPVC chemical resistance is required

• Irrigation systems and drainage networks

• HVAC and cooling water piping

• Compatible with solvent cement joining methods typical in UPVC piping systems

Installation

• Pipe and fitting sockets should be cleaned and prepared properly before assembly

• Use UPVC solvent cement (primer and adhesive) to bond pipe and fitting, ensuring a secure and leak-proof joint

• Follow manufacturer recommendations on solvent types, application, and curing times

• Provide proper support and alignment during installation to avoid undue stress on joints

• Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or use UV-protective coatings/paints to extend service life

• Best installed within the temperature range supported by UPVC, typically up to 60°C continuous use
