Barred tees are pipe fittings with two outlets, one at 90 ° to the connection to the main line that has tiny holes. Barred tees can either be extruded or fabricated and are used to connect two pieces of pipe or fittings. Barred tee is used in pipelines that are pigged.
The versatility of barred tees makes them indispensable in various industries:
1.Oil and Gas: In the oil and gas sector, where precise fluid management is crucial, barred tees are used to divert flow for sampling, testing, or directing fluid to auxiliary systems.
2.Petrochemical: Petrochemical plants rely on barred tees to ensure controlled flow in intricate processes like blending, mixing, and distribution of diverse chemicals.
3.Power Generation: Barred tees find application in power plants to redirect flow for maintenance purposes or to divert steam or cooling water to specific sections of the facility.
The barred tee will be used when there is a requirement for pigging. Thus, many of its applications can be found in the pipeline or in the subsea field. The bar plates that are welded internally at the branch are to avoid the pig from changing direction or getting stuck at the branch outlet.
