A plain end Y-shape tee (also called a 405° lateral) allows for a smooth, directional branch at a 45° angle. Unlike 90° tees, the Y-shape reduces turbulence and shear stress on sensitive fluids. Designed for permanent butt-weld installation, it ensures a seamless, crevice-free connection.
Flow: Superior directional flow for piggable systems or viscous fluids.
Sanitation: Polished ID (Ra < 0.8μm) for CIP efficiency.
Material: Typically 316L for high corrosion resistance.
