Gruvlok Figure 7062 Grooved Bullhead TEE
Gruvlok Figure 7062 Grooved Bullhead TEE
The Gruvlok Figure 7062 Grooved Bullhead TEE is a heavy-duty grooved pipe fitting designed for specialized piping layouts where a larger branch connection transitions into two smaller opposing run connections. This bullhead configuration provides contractors and engineers with an efficient solution for distributing or combining flow while incorporating different pipe sizes into a single fitting. The Figure 7062 is well suited for commercial, mechanical, industrial, and utility piping installations using grooved mechanical joining systems.
Bullhead TEE for Pipe Size Transitions
Unlike a conventional reducing tee, which typically has a smaller branch outlet, the Gruvlok Figure 7062 Bullhead TEE features a branch connection that is larger than the two run connections. This arrangement can be useful when a larger supply or equipment connection must divide into two smaller piping runs.
Integrating the size transition into the tee can reduce the need for separate reducers, nipples, and additional fittings. Fewer components can create a more compact piping layout while reducing the number of individual joints required.
Efficient Grooved Mechanical Installation
The Figure 7062 Grooved Bullhead TEE features grooved connections designed for installation with compatible pipe using properly selected Gruvlok grooved couplings and gaskets. Mechanical grooved joining eliminates field welding at fitting connections, helping reduce installation labor and simplify system assembly.
Correct component selection should consider nominal pipe sizes, operating pressure, temperature, conveyed media, system flow requirements, coupling type, and gasket compatibility.
Commercial and Industrial Applications
