Tee fitting SC 54 x 1" x 54 brown / shiny, model 22172 Sanpress 361228

Sanpress Tee – Reliability and Durability in Pipe Connections

This Sanpress tee, made of bronze, is a key component in pipe systems, ensuring reliable and leak-proof connections. Designed for connecting pipes with a diameter of 54 mm and an internal 1-inch thread (25 mm), it offers an ideal solution for both professional installers and demanding end users. Manufactured by the renowned company VIEGA, model 22172 guarantees high quality and long-term performance.

Construction and Application

The Sanpress tee features a compression sleeve (MZ) connected to an internal 1-inch thread (NPT, 25 mm) and another compression sleeve. This design enables flexible branching in water and heating systems. The SC-Contur technology ensures secure and safe connections, minimizing the risk of leaks. This component is particularly useful when adding a new branch to an existing pipe system.

Advantages and Benefits

• Durability and Resistance: Bronze construction provides high resistance to corrosion and mechanical damage, ensuring a long service life.
• Leak-tightness: EPDM seals combined with the crimping technology guarantee complete sealing, eliminating the risk of leaks.
• Easy Installation: The Sanpress system allows fast and simple installation without welding or soldering—only a compatible crimping tool is required. This saves time and labor costs.
• Versatility: Compatibility with various pipe types of 54 mm outer diameter makes this tee suitable for a wide range of installations.
• Safety: Maximum operating pressure of 16 bar ensures safe operation even under demanding conditions.
• Ready-to-Install: EPDM sealing elements are included in the package—no need to purchase them separately.
