FAQ
Q1: What is the difference between this Casting tee and the Forged tee?
A1: Casting tees (ASTM A351 CF8) are primarily used for low-pressure, medium-temperature piping systems of Class 150 and below, offering high cost-effectiveness. Forged tees (ASTM A182) are used for high-pressure environments (such as Class 3000). This NPT tee is specifically designed for low-pressure piping such as water and gas.
Q2: What does the pressure rating "Class 150" specifically mean?
A2: Class 150 is a low-pressure rating. For 304 stainless steel, its maximum permissible working pressure at room temperature is typically around 150 PSI (approximately 10 Bar). It is not suitable for high-pressure or high-temperature steam applications.
Q3: Is sealing material required when installing an NPT threaded tee?
A3: Yes. NPT (American Standard Tapered Pipe Thread) relies on the "wedging" between the threads and a sealant to prevent leaks. During installation, appropriate thread sealing tape (such as PTFE) or pipe thread sealant must be used, and care must be taken not to overtighten to avoid damaging the fittings.
