Compression Tee C X C X C - 15Mm

Compression Tee C X C X C - 15Mm

The Brass Compression Equal Tee (15mm C x C x C) is a core mechanical fitting used in plumbing and heating systems to create a three-way branch in a pipe run. This fitting allows an installer to join three equal lengths of 15mm copper pipe at 90-degree angles using heat-free compression joints.

Key Features and Installation Details
Compliance: Manufactured to standard specifications (e.g., BS EN 1254 or BS 864-2) and is typically WRAS Approved, ensuring safe use with potable (drinking) water systems.

Material: Constructed from durable Brass, providing excellent longevity, strength, and resistance to corrosion and joint stress.

Configuration: Equal Tee – Features three connection ports of the same size:

Three Compression Ports (C x C x C): Each port receives a 15mm copper pipe and uses a compression nut and olive to create the mechanical seal.

Size: Designed for use with 15mm copper pipe on all three branches.

Function: Used whenever a new branch line needs to be taken off an existing 15mm main run, such as feeding a radiator, a tap, or connecting a hot and cold supply to a mixer unit.

Installation Method: Heat-Free Mechanical Seal – Requires no soldering, flux, or heat. The seal is achieved by tightening the three compression nuts onto the fitting body, compressing the olives against the pipes.

The Installer's Advantage
The compression tee is highly versatile and is often chosen for pipe modifications, repairs, or extensions where the use of a naked flame is difficult or prohibited. It offers a reliable, professional branching point that can be easily disassembled for maintenance if required.

Essential Companion Products (Compression System)
To successfully create three permanent, leak-proof compression joints, the following materials are required:

Pipe: Requires 15mm pipe for the connection: Copper Tube 15mm x 0.7mm x 3m

Olives (Three): Required to create the seals (usually supplied, but spares are needed): Compression Copper Olive 15m
