Brass Flare Tee Union – Precision Forged Brass 3-Way Flare Connector for Secure Fluid and Gas Distribution

The Brass Flare Tee Union is a premium-quality forged brass fitting engineered to join three flared tubes or pipes in a T-shaped configuration with reliable, leak-proof 45° flare connections on all ends. Manufactured from high-grade forged brass (CW617N/C37700), it offers exceptional mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and long-lasting durability under high pressure and temperature variations.

Designed to meet global industry standards, this fitting is widely used in HVAC, refrigeration, fuel delivery, hydraulic, pneumatic, and industrial fluid systems requiring dependable three-way branching of tubing or piping.


 Advanced Features & Benefits:

  • Superior Material Composition: Made from lead-free, forged brass alloy CW617N/C37700, ensuring excellent resistance to corrosion, dezincification, and wear even in harsh environments such as marine, chemical, or outdoor applications.

  • Precision Machining: CNC-machined surfaces guarantee tight dimensional tolerances, flawless flare angles, and perfect thread engagement for superior sealing performance.

  • Flare Connection Design: Each port features a 45° flare angle conforming to SAE J512 standards, providing a reliable metal-to-metal seal that eliminates the need for thread sealants or PTFE tapes.

  • Thread Versatility: Available in SAE flare threads as standard with optional NPT, BSP, BSPT, and metric threads to suit international and custom requirements, supporting diverse piping systems worldwide.

  • High Pressure and Temperature Tolerance: Rated for pressures up to 800 PSI and temperature ranges from -65°F (-53°C) to 250°F (121°C), suitable for HVAC refrigerants, natural gas, fuel, and hydraulic fluids.

  • Surface Finishes: Default natural brass finish with options for nickel plating (for enhanced corrosion resistance) or chrome plating (for aesthetic appeal and additional surface protection).

  • Easy Installation & Maintenance: Designed for quick hand or wrench-tightening, this tee union is serviceable and reusable, allowing for easy disassembly and reassembly during system maintenance or upgrades.
