Tee, Slip x Slip x Slip PVC Schedule 40 6" (401-060)

The 6" PVC Schedule 40 Tee (401-060) is a full-size, straight-run tee designed for large-diameter piping systems that require a same-size branch connection off the main line. With a slip x slip x slip configuration across all three ports, every connection is solvent-welded for a permanent, pressure-rated joint that holds up to the demands of high-volume commercial and industrial applications.

Manufactured from rigid PVC to Schedule 40 specifications, this fitting is rated at 180 PSI at 73°F and carries NSF 61 certification for potable water contact. ASTM D2466 dimensional compliance ensures reliable compatibility with Schedule 40 pipe and fittings from all major manufacturers — all three ports accept standard 6" Schedule 40 pipe without modification.

At 6", this is a large-format fitting intended for primary distribution headers, municipal mains, and industrial process systems where equal flow splitting or full-size branch takeoffs are required by design. The slip configuration keeps the joint count low and installation efficient, making it a go-to choice for contractors and engineers working on systems where connection integrity at large diameters is non-negotiable.
