Our Heavy-Duty Poly Tees are the industry-standard solution for splitting a single irrigation line into two or adding a secondary pipeline to an existing run. Specifically engineered for Low-Density Poly (LDPE) and Drip Tube, these fittings provide a robust, leak-proof junction that stands up to the high-frequency cycles of automated hydroponic systems. Trusted by professional installers for their durability and consistent fit, these tees ensure your main supply \"spine\" can effectively feed multiple zones, trays, or rows with total reliability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \n  \u003chr\u003e\n  \n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBest For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Branching main supply lines into multiple grow zones, creating manifold \"T\" junctions, and expanding existing irrigation layouts with additional pipelines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \n  \u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-Tensile Barbed Grip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Features precision-moulded, aggressive barbs on all three outlets that bite deeply into the poly pipe, ensuring a secure, pull-out resistant connection that remains watertight under pressure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndustrial UV-Stabilisation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Manufactured from premium-grade polymers designed to withstand the intense radiation of Australian sun and indoor HID\/LED grow lights without becoming brittle or cracking.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax-Flow Internal Bore:\u003c\/strong\u003e The internal path is designed to minimise turbulence and pressure drop at the junction, ensuring consistent nutrient delivery even to the furthest plant sites in your system.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChemical \u0026amp; Salt Resistant:\u003c\/strong\u003e Built to handle continuous exposure to concentrated mineral salts, organic nutrients, and pH adjusters common in hydroponic reservoirs without degrading or leaching.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation-Grade Reliability:\u003c\/strong\u003e These are the same high-quality fittings used by professional irrigation specialists, chosen for their long-term performance in both commercial and hobbyist environments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOpaque Algae Prevention:\u003c\/strong\u003e The deep black pigmentation ensures total light blockage, preventing algae from colonising the fitting and protecting your downstream emitters from organic blockages.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \n  \u003ch3\u003eAvailable Sizes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e13mm Poly Tee (Bag of 20):\u003c\/strong\u003e The standard size for secondary distribution lines and smaller hobbyist irrigation setups.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e19mm Poly Tee (Bag of 20):\u003c\/strong\u003e The versatile \"all-rounder\" for medium-flow distribution lines and grow room manifold branching.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e25mm Poly Tee (Bag of 20):\u003c\/strong\u003e The professional choice for high-volume main supply lines and large-scale commercial irrigation networks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-Impact Polypropylene \/ ABS\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3-Way Barbed Compression\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low-Density Poly Pipe (LDPE) and Drip Tube\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20 Pieces per Bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black (Light-Proof)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eInstallation \u0026amp; Maintenance Tips\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThermal Seating:\u003c\/strong\u003e For the easiest installation and the tightest seal, dip the ends of the poly pipe in a cup of hot water for 15 seconds to soften it.
