The Georg Fischer 90° reduced tee in PVC-U is an engineered industrial piping component designed for precise, perpendicular branch reductions in metric pressure networks. Manufactured from unplasticised polyvinyl chloride (PVC-U) in accordance with EN ISO 1452-3, this injection-moulded fitting provides robust hydraulic routing without sacrificing mechanical rigidity. Rated for a nominal operating pressure of PN16 (16 bar at 20°C), the reduced tee allows engineers and plant installers to integrate smaller diameter branch runs directly into a main distribution manifold without requiring auxiliary reducing bushes, saving space and eliminating extra joint interfaces.

Engineered for industrial fluid handling, water treatment facilities, chemical processing lines, and municipal distribution, this PVC-U fitting exhibits superior chemical resistance against inorganic acids, alkalis, and saline solutions. The smooth hydraulic interior bore prevents scale formation, inhibits biofouling, and maintains low friction coefficients throughout decades of continuous operation. The component is fully certified for potable water applications and non-toxic fluid transport, offering an expected service life of up to 50 years when operated within standard temperature and pressure parameters.

Jointing is achieved via solvent cement socket fusion, creating a homogeneous, molecularly fused connection when paired with approved solvent cements such as Tangit. The metric socket tolerances ensure uniform glue gaps, high shear strength, and complete pressure integrity across thermal cycles up to +60°C (subject to temperature derating curves above 20°C). BigWeld supplies the complete dimensional range from d20 x 16 mm up to d160 x 110 mm to contractors and industrial facilities across Europe, backing every installation with technical specification support.
