Steel tee - 18 1509257011

Steel fitting for KAN-therm Steel installation – reliability and fast assembly

KAN-therm Steel tee with a diameter of 18 mm is a key element of heating, water and technological systems. Made of carbon steel, galvanized to ensure corrosion resistance, it is designed for making durable and tight press connections. Its construction, based on "Press" technology, guarantees quick and reliable assembly, eliminating the need for welding or threading. This is an ideal solution for both professional installers and demanding end customers.

Construction and application

This tee has three socket connections with a nominal diameter of DN 15 (18 mm outer diameter of the pipe). This allows branching of the installation in three directions, making it indispensable in the construction of complex systems. The EPDM seal ensures a tight connection at a maximum working pressure of up to 16 bar. The connection lengths and working lengths have been precisely selected to ensure optimal clamping force during pressing.

Advantages of the KAN-therm Steel system:

• Fast assembly: Pressing technology significantly reduces installation time compared to traditional methods.
• High strength: Carbon steel provides resistance to mechanical damage and high pressure (up to 25 bar).
• Safety: No need to use open flame during assembly minimizes the risk of fire, especially important when modernizing existing installations.
• Tightness: EPDM seal and LBP (Leak Before Press) function guarantee reliable leak-proof connections.
• LBP function: System for signaling unpressed connections – visual control of correct assembly. An unpressed connection is visible to the naked eye, which minimizes the risk of errors and later problems with the installation.
• Wide operating temperature range: From -35°C to 200°C – possibility of use in various operating conditions.
• Compatibility: Possibility of connection with KAN-therm plastic systems.

Characteristic features and benefits

The Steel tee is characterized not only by its solid construction but also by its functionality. The LBP function is a key advantage of this product – it allows for immediate detection of any errors during assembly, which translates into long-term reliability of the entire installation. Galvanized steel provides protection against corrosion, which is particularly important in damp rooms or in contact with aggressive substances. The precise dimensions of the tee guarantee a perfect fit to the other elements of the KAN-therm Steel system, ensuring tightness and efficient operation of the entire heating or water installation.
