Tigris M5 tee with male thread fi 16x1/2"x16 4064343

Universal threaded tee Tigris M5 – reliability and easy installation

This Tigris M5 threaded tee combines a solid brass construction with precision manufacturing, making it an ideal element for plumbing and central heating installations. Designed to connect 16 mm diameter pipes with a 1/2 inch threaded connection, it provides a tight and durable connection. Thanks to the use of high-quality materials, the tee is resistant to corrosion and mechanical damage, guaranteeing long-term reliability.

Design and application

The Tigris M5 tee is a connecting element used to branch pipe installations. It has three connections: two compression fittings with a diameter of 16 mm and a tapered BSPT-R external thread with a diameter of 1/2 inch. The brass construction provides strength and resistance to high pressure (up to 10 bar). The use of EPDM rubber seals guarantees a tight connection, eliminating the risk of leaks. This tee is used in both water and heating installations, as well as in gas distribution systems (after considering appropriate standards and regulations). Its compact dimensions make it easy to install even in hard-to-reach places.

Advantages for professionals and end users

• Quick and reliable installation: The Tigris M5 system is characterized by its simplicity of installation, which translates into saving time and labor costs.
• Strength and durability: The brass construction provides resistance to corrosion, high pressure and mechanical damage.
• Tight connection: EPDM seals guarantee a tight connection, minimizing the risk of leaks and energy losses.
• Compatibility: The tee is compatible with other elements of the Wavin Tigris K1/M1 system and the new generation M5.
• Acoustic Leak Alert (in the M5 system): Innovative acoustic leak detection function – an uncompressed fitting signals with a loud whistle, which facilitates quality control of the completed installation (applies to newer versions of the system).
• Optimal flow: Specially designed construction (Opti Flow) provides up to 50% larger hydraulic cross-section compared to standard fittings, minimizing pressure losses.
• Multi Jaw: Multi Jaw technology guarantees a secure connection regardless of the profile of the crimping tool jaws.
• Diameter reduction: The reducing model allows connecting pipes of different diameters at one point.

Additional information: The tee has a support collar for increased connection stability and is supplied with seals in the set. The seal material is monomeric ethylene-propylene-diene rubber (EDPM).
