Layflat Irrigation Hose Tee with Male-Threaded Branch

Create a threaded branch without stopping the flow through a layflat irrigation hose. This T-shaped fitting has two hose-insert ends in a straight line and a male-threaded outlet in the center. It suits a supply run that needs a takeoff to a compatible female-threaded valve, adaptor or branch assembly.

Choose all three connections together

The two straight ends are the same nominal hose size within each option: 32, 50, 63 or 75 mm. The center branch has its own male-thread size, which varies between options. Select the combination that matches both the hose and the fitting you plan to attach to the branch. A 63 mm hose option, for example, is available with several different branch threads; the hose diameter alone is not enough to choose the right tee.

Plan a secure hose joint

The raised bands on the straight tails are intended to help retain a correctly sized hose. Check the hose's actual internal diameter and construction before installation, and use a suitable clamp or other retaining method for that hose. Clamps are separate unless your selected option explicitly lists them. Keep the tee supported so the threaded branch and both hose ends are not carrying the weight of a long, water-filled line.

Connect and inspect

Turn off the water and release pressure. Position the tee where the branch can be reached, slide each hose end fully over its matching tail and secure both sides with suitable clamps. Connect a compatible female-threaded component without forcing mismatched threads; confirm its thread standard and sealing method separately. Restore water slowly and inspect all three joints for leaks.

Sold as one tee fitting. Hose, clamps, branch valve and thread-sealing accessories are separate.
