Solder Ring End and Branch Reducing Tee 22mm to 54mm

Solder Ring End and Branch Reducing Tee

The Solder Ring End and Branch Reducing Tee is a copper Solder Ring tee with the end and branch reduced, available in 22mm to 54mm. Solder is built into the fitting, so the joint is made by cleaning, fluxing and heating, with no extra solder needed.

Solder Ring End and Branch Reducing Tee are used to connect 3 pipes or tubes of the various sizes at 90 degrees.

Solder Ring End and Branch Reduced Tee and Solder Ring Reducing Tee’s are pre-soldered capillary connectors used in plumbing and are ideal when fitting pipes in confined spaces…

To obtain perfect joints, the inside of the fitting and the outside of the copper pipe are cleaned using coarse steel wool, flux paste is applied, the pipe is inserted into the fitting and heat applied from a portable propane torch until a ring of solder shows at the edges of the fitting. To obtain a durable joint, water must not be poured on the solder joint to cool it. Fittings are now made with lead-free solder.

The fittings come in a great variety of configurations, such as Tee-pieces, straight couplers, elbows or bends, reducers (to join pipes of different diameters), stop-ends, and there are versions with screw threads (male or female) at one end to fit taps and galvanised iron pipes.

This is a simple and cost-effective method of joining copper tubes to standard EN 1057.
Suitable for use above ground and on hot or cold domestic and commercial systems

Common Questions

What is a reducing tee in plumbing? A reducing tee joins three pipes where they’re not all the same size. On this end and branch version, both one end of the run and the side branch are smaller than the main pipe.

How do I order the right end and branch reducing tee? Check all three pipe sizes you’re connecting and match them to the three figures on the fitting. The range runs from 22mm x 15mm x 15mm up to 54mm x 42mm x 42mm.

Do I need extra solder for a solder ring tee? No, the solder is already built into the fitting. Clean the pipe and fitting, add flux, then heat until you see a ring of solder appear round the mouth of the joint.

Should I cool a solder ring joint with water? No, let it cool on its own. Dousing a hot joint with water can weaken it.

Is the solder in these fittings lead-free? Yes, the solder ring fittings are made with lead-free solder, so they’re suitable for water pipework.

Can I use it on hot and cold water systems? Yes, it suits hot or cold domestic and commercial systems above ground, with copper tube to EN 1057.
