Stainless Steel Branch Tee – 1/4" FNPT x 1/4" MNPT Pipe Size Tee (IBT-4N)
Designed to deliver high-strength, leak-tight performance in sanitary and industrial fluid systems. With dual 1/4″ Female NPT ports and a 1/4″ Male NPT branch, it’s built for excellent corrosion resistance and long-term durability in high-pressure applications.
Rated up to 7200 PSIG in construction, commonly used in Clean-in-Place (CIP) infrastructure, gas transfer lines, and original equipment manufacturer (OEM) skids where reliable sealing and compact routing are essential. Its tee body supports strong threaded connections for instrumentation panels, hygienic valve arrays, and piping assemblies. Perfect for fluid system assemblies requiring dependable sealing under constant vibration or pressure cycling.
Ideal for tight spaces and process-critical systems, this fitting offers seamless integration with compression fittings, valve manifolds, and sanitary-grade components. Ensures compatibility with corrosive media, making it a trusted choice for hygienic fluid processors and sanitary fittings. Its robust design provides confidence in applications involving hygienic valves, precise fluid control, and Clean-in-Place (CIP) instrumentation.
This tee fitting is widely implemented across industries such as food and beverage processing, biotechnology, chemical transfer, and gas distribution networks. Whether used in pressure systems demanding zero downtime or instrumentation setups requiring precise routing, it maintains integrity under demanding service conditions. Its compact design simplifies installation in restricted layouts while upholding full performance.
