Reducing Tee, Slip x Slip x Slip PVC Schedule 40 6" x 6" x 2" (401-528)

The 6" x 6" x 2" PVC Schedule 40 Reducing Tee (401-528) is designed for piping systems where a 6" main distribution line requires a significantly smaller 2" branch outlet — without the need for field-adapted bushings or secondary reducers at the branch point. All three ports use slip connections for solvent-welded joints, producing a clean, permanent installation that maintains system integrity across the full run.

Constructed from rigid PVC to Schedule 40 specifications, this fitting is rated at 180 PSI at 73°F and is NSF 61 certified for potable water applications. ASTM D2466 dimensional compliance ensures drop-in compatibility with Schedule 40 pipe and fittings from all major manufacturers on both the 6" run and the 2" branch.

The pronounced size differential between the 6" run and 2" branch makes this tee well suited to systems where a high-volume primary header feeds low-flow service points — instrumentation taps, chemical injection ports, sampling lines, small equipment supply connections, or secondary service branches off a large municipal or industrial main. It eliminates an extra fitting at the branch and keeps the installation compact where space or joint count matters.

Industries & Applications:

• Municipal & Civil Water Distribution — service branch takeoffs from large-diameter water mains to smaller supply lines
• Industrial Process Piping — low-flow branch connections off high-volume process water or cooling water headers
• Chemical Processing — injection or sampling taps off large PVC distribution mains
• Commercial Plumbing — equipment supply branches off primary distribution headers in mechanical rooms
• Water & Wastewater Treatment — instrumentation and service branch connections in treatment plant process piping
• Irrigation & Agriculture — controller or injection equipment supply lines branching off large mainline headers
