The Straight Tee is a pre-engineered solution for insulating straight-through tee connections, delivering consistent thermal performance, durable weather protection, and efficient installation.
  • Simplifies insulation at branch connections
    Modular tee sections eliminate the complexity of insulating intersecting pipes with traditional methods.
  • Minimizes downtime at high‑access locations
    Straight tee modules can be removed and reinstalled quickly for valve work, inspections, or process changes.
  • Consistent thermal performance across intersections
    Engineered geometry ensures uniform insulation coverage at the main run and branch connection.
  • Lower replacement and rework costs
    Reusable construction reduces material waste and recurring labor costs at tee locations.
  • Improves safety and cleanliness
    Enclosed metal cover prevents exposed insulation fibers and maintains a clean, durable finish.
  • Supports frequent inspection and maintenance
    Ideal for elbows requiring regular access due to inspections for erosion, fatigue, and weld failures.
  • Embossed aluminum outer jacketing
    Durable embossed aluminum jacketing protects the insulation system from mechanical damage while delivering a clean, professional industrial finish.
  • Multi‑layer insulation construction
    Engineered insulation core combines ceramic and mineral insulation layers to support a wide temperature range and maintain consistent thermal performance.
  • Temperature‑specific fabric liner
    Fabric materials are selected based on temperature design requirements:
  • Silicone‑coated fiberglass fabric for applications up to 500°C (932°F)
  • Ceramic fiber fabric for high‑temperature applications up to 1260°C (2300°F)
  • Stainless steel adjustable latches
    Heavy‑duty stainless steel latches allow quick installation and removal while maintaining a secure, repeatable fit—no cutting or rework required.
  • Reusable, modular design
    All components are designed for repeated access and reinstallation, reducing insulation waste, labor time, and total lifecycle cost.
