The drawing gives information on an Inserta Tee® connection for SDR 26 HWS gasketed bell gravity applications.

An Inserta Tee connection is made of a PVC hub adapter, a rubber gasket and a stainless steel securing clamp. The bell end of the Inserta Tee accepts pipe with SDR 26, ASTM D3034 or equivalent outside diameter specifications in 8”, 10”, 12”, 15”, 18”, 21”, 24”, 27” and 30” (200, 250, 300, 375, 450, 525, 600, 675 and 750 mm) sizes. For 4” and 6” (100 and 150 mm) sizes please refer to FatBoy specifications.)

The spigot end connects to PVC SDR 26 and ASTM D3034 pipe in 8”, 10”, 12”, 15”, 18”, 21”, 24”, 27” and 30” (200, 250, 300, 375, 450, 525, 600, 675 and 750 mm) sizes. The curvature of the Inserta Tee connector varies based on the mainline pipe diameter.

Other information shows the hole diameter that must be cored into the mainline based on the Inserta Tee’s size. The recommended method of cutting the hole is with a hole saw for PVC and other plastics and a diamond bit for concretes, clay, FRP and D.I. Hole saw are available for purchase or rent.
