Sch40 COMPRESSION TEE (GASKET x GASKET x FIPT)

Product Overview

System failures during the height of the summer heat can lead to rapid turf degradation and costly crop loss, placing immense pressure on your maintenance crews to perform immediate repairs. When a main line or lateral line fails, traditional solvent welding is often impossible due to moisture in the trench or tight workspace constraints. With peak season demand driving up lead times and localized supply shortages making specialized fittings harder to find, waiting for parts is not an option for professional contractors. Securing these Lesso compression tees now ensures you can restore service instantly, avoiding failed inspections and keeping your client's landscapes hydrated when they need it most.

The Lesso Schedule 40 Compression Tee offer a significant technical advantage by eliminating the need for primer, glue, and the associated cure times required for standard PVC solvent welds. This fitting utilizes a robust gasket seal that accommodates slight pipe misalignments and works effectively even in wet conditions where glue would fail to bond. By reducing the time spent on each repair, your crews can complete more service calls per day and lower your total labor overhead. Investing in high quality gasketed fittings allows you to maintain a competitive edge by offering faster turnaround times and more reliable emergency repairs than competitors relying on dated installation methods.

Product Specifications

Specification Detail
Material High Impact PVC (Schedule 40)
Connection Type Gasket x Gasket x FIPT (Female Iron Pipe Thread)
Seal Type Buna-N or EPDM Internal Gasket
Pressure Rating Up to 150 PSI at 73 Degrees F
Color/Finish White with Black or Blue Nut Components

Available Models & Sizes

This compression tee configuration is available in standard diameters ranging from 1/2 inch through 2 inch sizes to match common PVC pipe schedules. Please contact our sales team for current inventory levels on specific sizing, bulk quantity discounts, or specialized configurations for large scale commercial projects.

Key Features

  • Heavy duty PVC construction provides excellent resistance to corrosion and chemical soil degradation.
  • Internal compression gaskets create a water tight seal without the need for solvent welding or specialized glues.
  • The FIPT branch allows for easy integration of threaded risers, valves, or air release components into existing lines.
  • Deep socket design ensures maximum pipe engagement and stability under fluctuating system pressures.
  • Reduces installation labor by allowing for immediate system pressurization after the nuts are tightened.
  • Compatible with both Schedule 40 and Schedule 80 PVC piping for versatile field application.

Common Applications

  • Commercial landscape irrigation
  • Residential lawn and garden systems
  • Agricultural and crop irrigation
  • Sports turf and golf course maintenance
  • Municipal parks and public spaces
  • Nursery and greenhouse operations

Installation Notes

Ensure the PVC pipe ends are cut square and are free of burrs or sharp edges that could damage the internal gasket during insertion. Mark the insertion depth on the pipe to confirm it is fully seated within the fitting body before tightening the compression nuts. Hand tighten the nuts firmly and then use a strap wrench for an additional half turn if necessary; avoid over tightening with metal pipe wrenches to prevent cracking the PVC threads or nuts. Always verify local plumbing codes regarding the use of compression fittings on constant pressure main lines.
