Advantages of titanium tee
- Exceptional corrosion resistance resists acids, chlorides, and seawater in harsh environments.
- Lightweight with high strength reduces system weight without sacrificing durability.
- Long service life thanks to a stable oxide layer that minimizes maintenance.
- High temperature and pressure tolerance ensures reliable performance in demanding conditions.
- Excellent weldability makes installation easy, especially with Grade 2 and Grade 12.
- Purity make it suitable for pharmaceutical and clean applications.
- Compliance with ASTM B363 and ASME B16.9 ensures global compatibility and quality assurance.
Applications of titanium tee
Titanium tees are precisely machined with minimal tolerances, providing excellent corrosion resistance and a secure seal when merging two pipelines into one.
Unlike other materials that corrode in highly abrasive chemical environments, titanium maintains optimal performance and durability.
Heat exchangers, condensers, and evaporators
Suitable for shell-and-tube and plate-type units, where corrosion-free operation is critical.

Titanium tee installation – by connection type
Titanium tees are available in butt weld, socket weld, and threaded connection types, each designed to meet specific installation requirements.
Butt Weld Tee
Align the beveled ends and perform TIG welding for a strong, leak-free permanent connection.
Socket weld tee (for small diameter options)
The pipe is inserted into the socket, tack welded in place, and then fully welded around the joint—ideal for small-diameter systems.
Threaded tee (easy to assemble)
Apply sealant to the threads, hand-tighten the connection, then secure with a wrench—no welding required.
Frequently asked questions about titanium pipe tees
How much does a titanium pipe tee cost?
The price of a titanium tee varies based on grade, size, and quantity. Grade 2 titanium tees are the most cost-effective option for standard applications. Contact us for a quick quote.
How to choose a reliable titanium tee supplier?
Look for manufacturers certified with ISO or AS9100, compliant with ASTM B363 and ASME B16.9, and experienced in global exports. Chalco meets all of these criteria.
What are the types of tee fittings?
Common types include equal tees, reducing tees, long branch tees, short outlet tees, butt weld tees, socket weld tees, and threaded tees.
What's the difference between a tee and a Y fitting?
A tee has a 90° outlet, while a Y fitting branches or merges at a 45° angle, offering smoother directional flow transitions.
How do you determine the size of a tee fitting?
Start with the largest connection size (e.g., A = 1-1/2"), followed by the second run size (B = 1/2"), then the branch size (C = 1-1/4").
What's the difference between a threaded tee and a flanged tee?
Flanged tees offer higher strength and easier maintenance for high-pressure systems, while threaded tees are quicker to install and better suited for low-pressure use.
Can a slip-on flange be welded to a tee?
Yes, a slip-on flange can be welded to a butt weld or socket weld titanium tee to create a flange-to-flange connection.
