Westlake Pipe & Fittings 401010 1″ Socket PVC Tee

The Westlake Pipe & Fittings 401010 1″ Socket PVC Tee is a high-quality PVC fitting designed to provide durable, reliable three-way connections in residential, commercial, and light industrial piping systems. Engineered for strength, precision, and long-term performance, this tee is ideal for plumbing, irrigation, pool and spa systems, water distribution lines, and other applications requiring dependable branching or combining of flow.

Constructed from premium PVC, the 401010 tee delivers excellent structural integrity and lasting durability. Its robust design resists cracking, warping, and mechanical stress caused by pressure fluctuations, vibration, or frequent system operation. This ensures a leak-free, dependable connection that stands up to the rigors of everyday use in both professional installations and DIY projects.

The fitting features three 1-inch socket (slip) connections, specifically designed for solvent-weld installation with compatible PVC pipe. Solvent-weld connections create a strong, permanent bond, ensuring the integrity of the piping system over time. The precisely molded sockets and smooth internal surfaces promote proper pipe insertion, even cement distribution, and uniform alignment, resulting in secure, long-lasting joints.

The tee configuration allows for efficient splitting or combining of flow, making it ideal for pipelines that need to branch in two directions or merge multiple lines into a single run. This versatility makes the Westlake 401010 tee suitable for irrigation manifolds, circulation systems, water supply lines, and pool or spa piping setups. Its compact profile also allows installation in tight spaces without compromising system performance or accessibility.

PVC construction provides distinct advantages over metal alternatives, particularly in environments exposed to moisture, chemicals, or outdoor conditions. The Westlake 401010 tee is naturally resistant to corrosion, rust, and chemical degradation, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications. Unlike metal fittings, it will not seize, pit, or scale over time, reducing maintenance requirements and extending the service life of the piping system.

Despite its robust design, the lightweight nature of PVC makes the tee easy to handle and install. Installers benefit from faster assembly, reduced fatigue, and simplified alignment, while still achieving professional-grade, pressure-rated connections.

Manufactured to strict quality and dimensional standards, the 401010 tee ensures consistent socket depth, reliable fit, and compatibility with standard 1-inch PVC pipe. This precision reduces installation errors, minimizes rework, and ensures smooth system operation. Whether used for new installations, repairs, or expansions, this tee provides a dependable solution for creating three-way connections in PVC piping systems.
