2.6 Crosses and Tees

Standard terminology for the connections and configurations of Crosses and Tees:

Refer to the run connections first. If run connections differ in nominal size, identify the larger connection, then the smaller.

Identify outlets after the run connections. If outlets on Crosses or Tees differ in nominal size, identify the largest outlet connection first and then list them in descending order of size. See Figures 2.6.1B and 2.6.1D for examples of Crosses and Tees with more than the normal number of outlets.

WOODCO USA manufactures Studded Crosses and Tees according to the designs and tables in API Spec 6A. When specific nominal sizes and combinations of nominal sizes do not appear in API Spec 6A, WOODCO USA shall manufacture Studded Crosses and Tees according to the design criteria provided in API Spec 6A.
