Nylon fitting D16 T – code: 17.204.16 – Osculati

Nylon D16 T fitting Osculati (code 17.204.16)

The nylon T fitting Osculati, identified by code 17.204.16, is a component designed to create branches on pipeline lines simply and neatly. The T allows you to create a branching point while maintaining a compact geometry, useful when you want to distribute a flow towards two routes or connect a secondary line to a main one.

This version is suitable for diameter 16 (D16), as stated in the product name. The material nylon is commonly chosen in system installations for its ease of use and good adaptability in installations where lightweight and manageable components are sought.

Product features and details

Type and shape

• Type: fitting
• Shape: T (branch)
• Diameter: D16

Material

• Material: nylon

Nylon is a common material for fittings and technical small parts due to its versatility and ease of handling during assembly and maintenance. In the absence of further range specifications, it is recommended to always verify material consistency with the fluid and the operating conditions expected from the system.

Identification and supply

• Brand / supplier: Osculati S.r.l.
• Supplier product code: 17.204.16
• SKU: OSCU00000415

For orders, reorders, and technical requests, the most reliable reference is the Osculati code 17.204.16, also useful for catalog comparisons and spare parts management.

Typical applications

This nylon T fitting is suitable for general use in the field of hydraulics and fittings, where it is necessary to create a branch on a line with a diameter consistent with D16. In a context of onboard systems and technical maintenance, it can be used in many distribution configurations, depending on the project and the components present.

Examples of use (indicative)

• Creation of a branch on a main line to feed a secondary section.
• Organization of lines in technical spaces where a T geometry helps maintain a cleaner and more rational path.
• Localized maintenance or restoration on existing systems, when it is necessary to replace a fitting with the same shape and diameter.

Note: suitability for use with specific fluids, pressures, or temperatures depends on the system and pipes used; if these parameters are critical, it is advisable to check the technical documentation of the system and the manufacturer.

Advantages in installation and maintenance

Neat and compact branching

The shape of T allows setting a branch linearly, reducing the need for improvised solutions and helping to keep the system more readable during inspections and subsequent interventions.

Practical material to handle

The nylon is often appreciated for its manageability: in many installations, it allows working with lightweight and easy-to-move components, especially when operating in technical compartments or confined spaces.

Clear references for reordering

The presence of a unique product code (17.204.16) simplifies spare part identification and reduces the risk of errors during procurement, especially when managing multiple diameters or similar variants.

Usage and operational notes

Verification of diameter and system consistency

Before purchase and installation, verify that the diameter D16 be consistent with the piping and other fittings present. In systems with multiple diameters, it is advisable to carefully check the measurement to avoid unwanted adaptations.

T configuration check

The T geometry is indicated when a “three-way” branch is desired. If the requirement is different (for example a curve or a linear joint), a fitting of another shape might be more appropriate. Therefore, evaluate the system layout and available space.

Material compatibility

In plant engineering, compatibility between fitting material, piping, and fluid is an essential aspect. If the system uses different materials or specific fluids, it is good practice to verify the overall system compatibility and follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Good maintenance practices

• Periodically inspect fittings in areas subject to vibrations or stresses.
• During interventions on existing lines, replace worn components with equivalent spare parts in shape and diameter.
• Keep the reference 17.204.16 for faster management of spare parts and scheduled maintenance.
