An Inconel 825 tee is a fitting with a 90° branch that splits or combines flow, made from Inconel 825 to ASTM B366 WPNICMC (buttweld) · ASTM B564 (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.
For the full 825 fittings range, see Inconel 825 pipe fittings.

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

Inconel 825 Tee: Why 825 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 Inconel 825, 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 | Nickel-alloy fittings match nickel-alloy pipe in aggressive media. Inconel 825 is picked for sulphuric and phosphoric acid service, chloride stress-corrosion cracking and sour gas. |
|---|---|
| Typical service | Sulphuric & phosphoric acid plants — Tank linings, agitators, heat-exchanger baffles in fertiliser and acid production. |
| Welding to carbon steel | A nickel-base filler such as ERNiCr-3 (or ERNiCrMo-3) is used when joining it to carbon steel |
| Matching filler | ERNiFeCr-1 (AWS A5.14) |
| Sour service | Listed in NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156-3 within its limits — state it on the order |

Inconel 825 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 Inconel 825 tees be welded to carbon steel?
Yes — a nickel-base filler such as ERNiCr-3 (or ERNiCrMo-3) is used when joining it to carbon steel.
Which standard covers Inconel 825 tees?
The material is ASTM B366 WPNICMC (buttweld) · ASTM B564 (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 Inconel 825 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 Inconel 825 tees be supplied to NACE MR0175?
Inconel 825 (UNS N08825) can be supplied for sour service when the PO specifies NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156; acceptability depends on the material condition, hardness and the environmental limits in that standard, which the purchaser must confirm for the application.
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.
