PVC Pressure Snap-On Tee Plain 40mm x 40mm (1 1/2") is a PVC-U fitting used to add a 40mm 90° branch to an existing 40mm PVC pressure pipe without cutting the main pipeline. The snap-on section suits PVC pressure pipe with a 48.3mm outside diameter, while the branch provides a 40mm solvent-weld socket for matching PVC pressure pipe.
PVC priming fluid and pressure-rated solvent cement are applied to the prepared mating surfaces before the fitting is snapped over the existing pipe. Once securely installed, a hole is drilled through the existing pipe inside the branch opening to allow water into the new outlet. Matching 40mm PVC pressure pipe is then solvent-welded into the branch socket.
This fitting is suited to low-pressure residential, commercial and agricultural irrigation, garden and landscape watering and other compatible low-pressure PVC pressure pipework.
