Compression fitting with female thread 16mm x 1/2" ZTW1612

Compression tee – a reliable installation element

The VESBO ZTW1612 compression tee is a key element in water and heating installation systems, connecting pipes with a diameter of 16 mm with a 1/2 inch threaded connection. Made of high-quality brass (grade MO 58), it provides durability and corrosion resistance, which translates to a long service life of the connection. This fitting is ideal for both professional installers and end-users who value quick and trouble-free installation.

Design and application

This tee combines the advantages of compression technology with a traditional internal thread. Two compression connections allow for quick and tight connection of PEX/PERT pipes using a crimping tool, eliminating the need for soldering or threading. The 1/2 inch internal thread allows connection of fittings or devices with an external thread, such as valves, filters or taps. This solution allows for flexible adaptation of the installation to individual needs.

The tee is used in:

• Water supply installations – both hot and cold water.
• Central heating systems.
• Sanitary installations.
• Connecting water draw-off points (e.g. kitchen, washbasin taps).
• Dividing the installation while simultaneously connecting threaded fittings.

Advantages and benefits

• Quick installation: Compression technology significantly reduces installation time compared to traditional connection methods.
• Tightness: Compression connections guarantee high tightness, minimizing the risk of leaks.
• Durability: The brass construction provides resistance to corrosion and high working pressure (up to 10 bar).
• Versatility: The ability to connect PEX/PERT pipes with threaded fittings increases the range of applications for the tee.
• Compact dimensions: Make installation easier in tight spaces, e.g. in concealed installations.
• Compatibility: The tee is compatible with the VESBO Press U system and other popular 16 mm pipe systems.
• Reduced number of connections: Direct connection of threaded elements eliminates the need for additional fittings, simplifying the installation and reducing the risk of potential failures.

Thanks to these features, the VESBO ZTW1612 tee is a reliable solution for anyone who values quality, durability and convenient installation.
