Description
Westlake Pipe & Fittings 402-249 Reducing Tee Pipe, 2″ Slip x 2″ Slip x 1″ FPT
The Westlake Pipe & Fittings 402-249 Reducing Tee Pipe is a precision-engineered Schedule 40 PVC fitting designed to provide a smooth and reliable branch connection in 2-inch piping systems while reducing the flow to a 1-inch outlet. This versatile reducing tee features two 2-inch slip connections and one 1-inch female-threaded (FPT) end, allowing easy integration with both slip and threaded components. Ideal for residential, commercial, and industrial applications, this fitting ensures a secure, leak-resistant connection while providing an efficient method for downsizing piping branches.
Constructed from high-quality Schedule 40 PVC, the 402-249 Reducing Tee offers exceptional durability, strength, and resistance to corrosion, chemical exposure, and UV damage. Unlike metal fittings, PVC will not rust, scale, or degrade over time, making it a reliable solution for long-term installations both indoors and outdoors. Its robust wall thickness ensures structural integrity and the ability to handle high water pressures, making it suitable for plumbing, irrigation, pool systems, and industrial fluid transport.
The reducing tee’s design allows the mainline flow to continue uninterrupted through the 2-inch slip connections while providing a smaller 1-inch outlet for branching, drainage, or auxiliary connections. This configuration is particularly useful for creating branch lines in irrigation systems, pool equipment connections, or plumbing layouts where smaller diameter pipes are needed for valves, sensors, or auxiliary components. The smooth interior of the fitting minimizes turbulence and maintains consistent flow, reducing pressure loss and enhancing system efficiency.
Installation is straightforward: the 2-inch slip ends are designed for solvent-weld attachment to standard 2-inch PVC pipes using PVC primer and cement, while the 1-inch FPT threaded outlet allows easy connection to a male-threaded pipe, valve, or fitting. This combination of slip and threaded ends provides maximum versatility, simplifies system modifications, and reduces the need for additional adapters or couplings, saving time and reducing potential leak points.
The Westlake 402-249 Reducing Tee is suitable for a wide range of applications, including residential and commercial plumbing systems, swimming pool and spa installations, irrigation and agricultural water distribution networks, industrial fluid transport systems, and municipal water systems. Its lightweight yet durable construction allows for easy handling, transport, and installation while maintaining the strength and performance needed for professional-grade piping systems.
Precision manufacturing ensures accurate dimensions and consistent fit, minimizing the risk of misalignment, leaks, or joint failure. The combination of high-quality materials, corrosion resistance, and professional-grade design makes this reducing tee an essential component for any PVC piping system requiring branch connections with downsized outlets.
