PPRC reducing tee grey 50x40x50 GF Aquasystem 4301905021421

Reduction tee – a reliable connection in installations

This grey reduction tee made of polypropylene (PPRC) from GF Aquasystem is a key element for connecting pipes of different diameters in water and heating systems. It allows changing the cross-section of the installation, e.g. when connecting smaller pipe sections to the main line. Its construction ensures durability and tightness of connections, which is particularly important in installations exposed to pressure and temperature.

Construction and application

The tee is made of high-quality polypropylene, which guarantees resistance to corrosion and the action of most chemicals present in water and heating systems. The reduction from 50 mm to 40 mm and back to 50 mm allows for flexible adaptation to the existing infrastructure. It is an ideal solution during modernization of installations or adaptation of new elements.

• Versatility: Suitable for potable water, underfloor heating and central heating.
• Durability: Made of a material resistant to cracking and mechanical damage.
• Tightness: Provides a safe and long-lasting connection without the risk of leaks.
• Chemical resistance: Polypropylene is resistant to the action of most chemicals found in water and heating installations, which extends the life of the tee.

Operating parameters

The GF Aquasystem tee is characterized by high thermal resistance – it can operate at a temperature of up to 95°C, which makes it suitable for use in central heating systems. The material from which it is made has a melt flow rate of ≤ 0.5 g/10 min at 230°C and a load of 2.16 kg, which indicates its stability and quality. This is an important parameter for installers that affects the ease of welding and the durability of the connection.
