Butt-Weld Short Tee (7WWW) – 316L Stainless Steel

PNW Sanitary Butt-Weld Short Tees (7WWW) provide a compact, sanitary branch connection for welded stainless process systems. Manufactured from 316L stainless steel, these fittings feature two main run ends and a short outlet branch—ideal for installations where space is limited. The 7WWW design allows smooth, crevice-free flow paths suitable for hygienic applications in food, beverage, dairy, brewery, cosmetic, nutraceutical, and pharmaceutical processing.

Each fitting is precision-machined and polished to a 32Ra sanitary finish for cleanability and flow efficiency. The 316L alloy offers excellent corrosion resistance and weldability, making it suitable for permanent installations where Clean-In-Place (CIP) maintenance methods are used.
