About Y-piece

The figure 220 Y-piece splits a threaded line into two branches, and all three ports are female threads. In pipework, malleable cast iron is the choice for joints that take mechanical load and may run up to 300 °C. The group offers Rp 1/2, Rp 3/4 and Rp 1.

What matters when choosing

• Thread 1 to thread 3: Rp 1/2 IT, Rp 3/4 IT and Rp 1 IT. In this series all ports are the same size, so the size follows the existing pipework.
• Thread standard ISO 7-1: Rp is the parallel female thread for joints made pressure tight on the thread, the mating part being a taper male thread.
• Material: black malleable cast iron B350-10 to design symbol A. It carries far higher mechanical load than a plastic fitting and is the most widely used version in pipework.
• Surface: the feature states the finish per item, the Y-pieces being listed hot dip galvanised. The zinc coating is the deciding point for outdoor lines and damp surroundings.
• Temperature range: -20 °C to 300 °C operating temperature, which also covers steam and heating lines where a plastic fitting is out of the question.

Typical applications

• Branch points in steel pipe compressed air ring mains
• Heating and hot water lines in building services
• Distribution lines in plant and pipework construction
• Threaded water lines in workshops and utility installations
• Repair of existing threaded pipework where a branch is added
