304 tees are versatile pipe fittings that enable branch connections in residential, commercial, and industrial piping systems, combining functionality with corrosion resistance. Made from 304 stainless steel, these tees offer a cost-effective solution for fluid distribution in water supply, HVAC, and light industrial applications. Newstar Hardware provides 304 tees in equal and reducing configurations—equal tees for three same-diameter connections, and reducing tees for diameter transitions—compliant with ASME B16.9 and MSS SP-43. Sizes range from 1/2" to 24" (DN15 to DN600), with pressure classes up to 2500# to suit low- and high-pressure systems. The 304 alloy’s austenitic structure ensures ductility for easy installation, while its resistance to rust and oxidation makes it suitable for humid environments like bathrooms, kitchens, and outdoor plumbing. For industrial use, these tees handle non-aggressive chemicals and gases in manufacturing plants. Surface finishes include mill, polish, or passivation, with electropolishing options for food-grade applications where hygiene is critical. With a minimum tensile strength of 515MPa and yield strength of 205MPa, 304 tees deliver reliable performance and long-term durability.
