A Miter Tee is a fabricated branch fitting produced by cutting and joining pipe sections at specified angles to create a branch connection. Unlike standard forged or seamless tees, a Miter Tee can be manufactured to suit large pipe diameters, non-standard branch sizes, and project-specific geometries.
As a reliable Miter Tee Stockist in India and Miter Tee Supplier in India, we supply fabricated Miter Tees for industrial piping, process plants, transmission pipelines, and custom-engineered applications.
With an established presence since 1985 and ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015 and ISO 45001:2018 certifications, Metal-Link supports miter tee requirements with material traceability, inspection documentation and project-based supply.

| Custom Fabricated Miter Tee | Designed to project drawings | Large or non-standard piping |
An Equal Miter Tee has the same nominal diameter for the run and branch connections. This type is used in general piping systems where the branch line requires the same flow capacity as the main run pipe.
This type is commonly used in:
A Reducing Miter Tee connects a smaller branch line to the main pipe. Miter Tee fabrication provides flexibility where standard fittings are unavailable or unsuitable due to unusual dimensions, pipe schedules, or project layouts.
The design must consider:
Straight Miter Tees are generally used for branch connections perpendicular to the main pipe. The branch is fabricated at approximately 90° to the run pipe, providing a standard branch connection similar to a conventional tee fitting.
Lateral Miter Tees provide an angled branch connection. The branch angle is selected according to piping layout, flow requirements, available installation space, and applicable engineering specifications.
Common branch angles include:
A Reinforced Miter Tee incorporates additional material or reinforcement at the branch intersection to withstand higher internal pressure, external loads, or stress concentrations. Reinforcement design is based on the applicable piping code and stress analysis.
Custom Fabricated Miter Tees are designed and manufactured according to project-specific engineering drawings. The run diameter, branch diameter, wall thickness, branch angle, material grade, and reinforcement requirements can all be specified to meet the unique requirements of large-diameter or non-standard piping systems.
The design of a Miter Tee should consider stress concentration at the branch intersection, weld quality, pressure loading, external loads, and the applicable piping code.
| Parameter | Importance |
|---|---|
| Main Pipe Diameter | Determines overall fitting geometry |
| Branch Diameter | Defines branch flow capacity |
| Wall Thickness | Affects pressure containment |
| Branch Angle | Determines flow direction and layout |
| Material Grade | Ensures service compatibility |
| Design Pressure | Influences required strength |
| Design Temperature | Affects material selection |
| Corrosion Allowance | Provides allowance for material loss |
| Material | Typical Application |
|---|---|
| Carbon Steel | General industrial and pipeline service |
| Low-Temperature Carbon Steel | Low-temperature process systems |
| Alloy Steel | High-temperature and high-pressure service |
| Stainless Steel | Corrosive process environments |
| Duplex Steel | Offshore and chloride-containing environments |
| Nickel Alloy | Severe corrosion and critical process service |
The material of a Miter Tee is generally selected to maintain compatibility with the parent pipe, welding procedure, operating temperature, pressure, and process medium.
Miter Tees are commonly manufactured according to project-specific drawings and applicable piping or fabrication requirements.
| Standard | Application |
|---|---|
| ASME B31.3 | Process piping |
| ASME B31.1 | Power piping |
| ASME B31.4 | Liquid pipeline transportation |
| ASME B31.8 | Gas transmission pipelines |
| ASME Section IX | Welding qualification |
| ASTM Material Standards | Material and mechanical requirements |
| Project Specifications | Custom dimensions and inspection requirements |
Miter Tees are commonly used where large sizes, special branch angles, or custom dimensions make standard tees impractical.
Miter Tees are manufactured by accurately cutting pipe sections to the required geometry and joining them using qualified welding procedures. Fabrication quality is particularly important because weld joints may be subjected to pressure, thermal loading, and external piping stresses.
Typical manufacturing controls include:
