Preinsulated T-piece straight, TwinPipe
Component Number:
3490
Applicable Systems:
The Bonded TwinPipe
Description
The branch of the T-piece has a fixing bar welded onto it.
If the T-piece is installed at the end of a section, fixing bar must be welded onto the main pipe.
Wires for surveillance are embedded.
All preinsulated T-pieces are as a standard delivered with 2 embedded wires: a copper wire and a tinned wire.
The tinned wire always runs into the branch, whereas the copper wire runs straight through.
Application
T-pieces straight for TwinPipe are reinforced to withstand axial forces corresponding to stresses of 330 MPa.
However, in case the main pipe and the branch have the same dimension, T-pieces can only withstand axial forces corresponding to 190 MPa.
