The KPC-165 Combination socket tee / crossover is a 100-series bolt-on fitting for 48.3 mm OD, 1-1/2" Sch. 40 pipe. It combines a tee branch and crossover bypass in one fitting for multi-pipe intersections, using stainless steel hex screws to lock the pipe without welding so smaller-format rail, display, and frame structures can be assembled and reworked on site.
Why It Matters
Some junctions need both a branch and a pass-over. This combination fitting keeps that more complicated 48.3 mm intersection in one organized body.
Key Features
Combination body provides both a socket tee branch and a crossover path in a single fitting.
Malleable iron casting per ASTM A197 provides a durable body for modular tubular structures.
ASTM A153 hot dip galvanized treatment plus zinc plating supports corrosion resistance in demanding environments.
Stainless steel hex screws lock the pipe without welding, helping crews assemble and revise frames cleanly.
Applications
Designed for complex pipe grids, retail display frameworks, exhibition structures, scenic builds, guardrail details, and multi-run intersections where a tee and crossover meet in the same spot.
Compatibility
Fits 48.3 mm OD, 1-1/2" Sch. 40 pipe; related sister fittings cover the alternate KUPO pipe clamp diameter.
