Flamco T-Plus Self-Cutting Steel Pipe Tee – who uses them?
I have some Flamco T-Plus 2.5″ x 2.5″ x 1.25″ Steel Pipe Tee Connectors which I keep tripping up on (they’re in the way!) I am wondering if anyone could suggest industries or professions (rather than general plumbing) in which they are used. I cannot think of any. They’re self-cutting T-piece connectors to allow one to join a 1.25″ BSP pipe to a running 2.5″ steel or iron pipe without isolating the supply. Rather like those ones you get for adding a new outside tap, but on an industrial scale. They are powered by a small explosive charge which is detonated by a hammer blow to one end. It all sounds quite fun, but I don’t want to ‘test’ one however tempting the idea is…
