A Duplex 2205 tee is a fitting with a 90° branch that splits or combines flow, made from Duplex 2205 to ASTM A815 WPS31803 / WPS32205 (buttweld) · ASTM A182 F51 / F60 (forged). Equal tees have the same size branch as the run; reducing tees have a smaller branch. Barred tees add internal bars so pipeline pigs pass the branch.

When to Choose a Tee
Equal tees have the same size branch as the run; reducing tees have a smaller branch. Barred tees add internal bars so pipeline pigs pass the branch.
- Equal and reducing
- Barred tees for piggable lines
- Buttweld, socket weld or threaded

Duplex 2205 Tee: Why 2205 for tees
Equal tees have the same size branch as the run; reducing tees have a smaller branch. Barred tees add internal bars so pipeline pigs pass the branch. In Duplex 2205, the choice usually comes down to the medium and temperature — the rows here are the points buyers check for this exact combination.
| Why this grade | Duplex fittings match duplex pipe in chloride service and strength. Duplex 2205 is picked for strength with chloride resistance at a stainless-steel budget. |
|---|---|
| Typical service | Oil & gas — Flowlines, manifolds and topside piping. |
| Welding to carbon steel | ER2209 or ER309L(Mo) is used when joining it to carbon steel, under a qualified WPS |
| Matching filler | ER2209 (AWS A5.9) |
| Sour service | Listed in NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156-3 within its limits — state it on the order |

Duplex 2205 Tee — questions buyers ask
What is a barred tee?
A tee with bars welded across the branch opening so a pipeline pig cannot enter the branch.
Can Duplex 2205 tees be welded to carbon steel?
Yes — ER2209 or ER309L(Mo) is used when joining it to carbon steel, under a qualified WPS.
Which standard covers Duplex 2205 tees?
The material is ASTM A815 WPS31803 / WPS32205 (buttweld) · ASTM A182 F51 / F60 (forged); dimensions follow ASME B16.9 · B16.11. Always state both on your purchase order, with the edition if your project specifies one.
What decides the price of a Duplex 2205 tee?
The alloy price, the size and schedule or class, quantity, and the testing and documents required. Send your list and we quote the same working day.
Can you supply Duplex 2205 tees to NACE MR0175?
Yes. Duplex 2205 is listed in NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156-3 within its limits; state NACE compliance on the order and it is confirmed on the certificate.
What documents do you supply?
EN 10204 3.1 or 3.2 certificates available on request / as specified in the PO; dimensional reports as required. PMI can be arranged depending on product and requirements, as specified in the PO.
