These PVC Pipe Fittings Tee Sockets are engineered for DIYers, plumbers, and workshop builders who need a consistent, leak-free solvent weld connection every time. Available in White, Blue, and Grey to match your existing pipework or color-code your system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eEach fitting is a T-type 3-way socket designed for solvent cement bonding. The internal bore (ID) ranges from 16mm (~0.63 in) up to 200mm (~7.87 in), covering light domestic pipe runs through to larger-diameter drainage and industrial supply lines. Wall thickness and overall dimensions scale proportionally with each size. Material is rigid PVC, suited for cold and ambient-temperature water systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eTypical applications include residential garden irrigation tee junctions, PVC conduit branching for electrical runs, rainwater harvesting manifolds, and workshop compressed-air distribution lines. Long-tail use cases: solvent weld tee fitting for 50mm PVC pipe, 3-way PVC socket for irrigation manifold, grey PVC tee connector 110mm drainage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv class=\"hdiy-compat\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"hdiy-compat-icon\"\u003e🔗\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Designed for standard-wall PVC pipe matching the listed ID sizes.
