Description
The 200mm unequal tee branch 90° double socket is an underground drainage fitting used to connect 160mm pipework into a larger 200mm drainage run. It is suitable for foul water and surface water systems where a 160mm branch needs to join a 200mm main pipe at a right-angle connection.
This Magnaplast KG underground drainage branch is designed for compatible PVC-U underground drainage pipework. The 200mm main connection suits larger drainage runs, while the 160mm outlet allows a smaller branch line to feed into the system.
The double socket design provides socketed connections where required within the drainage layout. This makes it useful for site drainage alterations, larger domestic systems, commercial drainage runs and groundwork projects where different pipe sizes need to connect neatly.
200mm Unequal Tee Branch for Underground Drainage
The 200mm unequal tee branch is used where a 160mm underground drainage pipe needs to enter a 200mm main run. This can be useful for smaller branch lines, surface water runs, foul drainage connections or larger site drainage layouts.
Because this is an unequal branch, it connects two different pipe sizes in one fitting. This helps reduce the need for separate reducers at the branch point and supports a cleaner drainage layout.

200mm Unequal Tee Branch Double Socket Connection
This 200mm unequal tee branch is designed for use with compatible 200mm and 160mm underground drainage pipework. The 200mm section forms part of the main drainage run, while the 160mm branch connects into the fitting at a right-angle layout.
Before installation, check the pipe sizes, flow direction and final branch position. The branch should sit correctly within the drainage layout and should not be forced into poor alignment.
Use suitable pipe lubricant on ring seal joints where required. Also, make sure pipe ends are clean before jointing. If pipework is cut to length, make a clean square cut and chamfer the edge before fitting. This helps protect the seal and makes the joint easier to assemble.
200mm Unequal Tee Branch Installation Use
The 200mm unequal tee branch should be installed as part of a properly planned underground drainage system. It is useful where 160mm pipework needs to connect into a larger 200mm drainage run.
Correct bedding and backfill are important around the branch. The pipework and fitting should be evenly supported so the drainage system remains stable after installation. Poor support can place stress on the sockets and may affect long-term performance.
Because this is a branch fitting, the wider drainage layout should include suitable access for future rodding, inspection or maintenance where required. Always follow the site specification, current UK drainage guidance and manufacturer instructions.
Unequal Tee Branch for Site Drainage Work
This fitting is a practical product for builders, groundworkers, landscapers and drainage installers working with mixed 200mm and 160mm underground drainage systems. It can be used on new installations, drainage alterations, pipework extensions and repair work.
For best results, use compatible pipe and fittings from the same underground drainage system where possible. This helps keep jointing simple and supports a clean, consistent installation.
This product is not an access fitting. If inspection or rodding access is needed at this point in the drainage layout, use a suitable access branch, inspection chamber or rodding point as required.
