Overview
The VTCON U-Bolt Mechanical Tee is used to create a branch outlet connection directly from the main pipe without welding.
The mechanical outlet design helps simplify installation and supports fire protection piping layouts where branch connections are required.
Please check the product drawing, branch size and dimension table carefully before enquiry or project use.
