1-1/2" Schedule 10 Butt-Weld Tee – 304 Stainless Steel
PNW Sanitary 304 stainless steel Schedule 10 butt-weld tees are precision-manufactured fittings designed for nominal pipe size (NPS) stainless piping systems. This equal-length tee configuration provides a 90-degree branch connection between three pipe sections, supporting consistent flow distribution in industrial fabrication and process piping applications.
Constructed from 304 stainless steel and manufactured in accordance with ASTM A403/A960 material standards and ASME B16.9 dimensional requirements, this tee ensures reliable weld fit-up and dimensional consistency. Schedule 10 wall thickness provides a balanced combination of strength, durability, and weight efficiency for mechanical systems, structural assemblies, and general industrial service. Ends are factory-beveled for secure and consistent butt-weld installation. Fittings are ink-stamped “Ace Race Parts” for manufacturing identification.

Applications & Compatibility
Commonly used in industrial stainless piping systems requiring a branch connection for fluid or gas distribution. Suitable for fabrication projects, mechanical installations, structural builds, and general process utility lines. Compatible with standard NPS Schedule 10 stainless pipe and butt-weld fittings manufactured to ASME B16.9 dimensions. Not intended for sanitary clamp-style or hygienic ferrule-based systems.
Quality & Material Verification
PNW Sanitary verifies stainless steel fittings through in-house Positive Material Identification (PMI) using the SciAps X-550 handheld XRF spectrometer to confirm alloy chemistry and support material traceability.
