Stainless steel Sanpress tee – a reliable connection in installations

This tee from the Sanpress series, made of high-grade (stainless) steel, is a key element of installation systems, providing durable and tight connections. Model 23172, with dimensions 18 x 1/2" x 18, is designed to connect 18 mm diameter pipes with a 1/2 inch internal thread. This is an ideal solution for both professional installers and end-users who value quality and reliability.

Design and application

The Sanpress tee is characterized by a solid construction and precise workmanship. The use of stainless steel 316 (1.4401) guarantees corrosion resistance and long-term operation, even in harsh environmental conditions. The use of crimp sleeves ensures quick and safe installation, minimizing the risk of leaks. This tee finds wide application in water supply, heating and technological installations, where high resistance to pressure and temperature is required. A bending angle of 90° makes it easier to run installations in tight spaces.
