This compact geometry is particularly useful in tight service corridors, plant rooms and retrofit projects where space is limited and routing efficiency is critical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe grooved connection system uses a ductile iron housing and elastomer gasket, which is compressed around the pipe ends using a bolted coupling assembly. Once tightened, the gasket forms a pressure-responsive seal that improves under internal system pressure, ensuring reliable leak resistance without welding or threading.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003eManufactured from ductile iron, these fittings provide high mechanical strength, impact resistance and durability under both static and dynamic loading conditions. Grooved systems are commonly designed for working pressures up to approximately 20–35 bar depending on size, coupling type and system specification, making them suitable for demanding mechanical and fire protection applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003eShort radius grooved tees are widely used in fire sprinkler systems, HVAC installations, chilled water systems and general industrial pipework where a branch connection is required but installation space is restricted. Their reduced laying length helps simplify pipe routing and reduce overall system complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003eFinishes are typically supplied as red oxide painted for fire protection identification or internal use, and hot dip galvanised for enhanced corrosion resistance in external or more aggressive environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eApplications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIdeal for fire sprinkler systems, HVAC installations, chilled water systems, water distribution and industrial pipework where compact 90° branch connections are required using grooved mechanical jointing systems.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GRUVLOK","offers":[{"title":"50mm \/ Galvanised","offer_id":54024488419661,"sku":"GRVSRT050G","price":12.86,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"50mm \/ Red","offer_id":54024488452429,"sku":"GRVSRT050R","price":11.6,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"65mm \/ Galvanised","offer_id":54024488485197,"sku":"GRVSRT065G","price":17.12,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"65mm \/ Red","offer_id":54024488517965,"sku":"GRVSRT065R","price":15.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"80mm \/ Galvanised","offer_id":54024488550733,"sku":"GRVSRT080G","price":16.39,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"80mm \/ Red","offer_id":54024488583501,"sku":"GRVSRT080R","price":19.35,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"100mm \/ Galvanised","offer_id":54024488616269,"sku":"GRVSRT100G","price":24.97,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"100mm \/ Red","offer_id":54024488649037,"sku":"GRVSRT100R","price":22.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"150mm \/ Galvanised","offer_id":54024488681805,"sku":"GRVSRT150G","price":49.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"150mm \/ Red","offer_id":54024488714573,"sku":"GRVSRT150R","price":39.93,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"200mm \/ Galvanised","offer_id":54024488747341,"sku":"GRVSRT200G","price":71.72,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"200mm \/ Red","offer_id":54024488780109,"sku":"GRVSRT200R","price":65.19,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9925\/1021\/files\/short-radius-grooved-gr8lok-8460-tees_GRVSRT050R.png?v=1780480253","url":"https:\/\/fire-mechfixings.co.uk\/products\/short-radius-grooved-gr8lok-8460-tees","provider":"Fire Mech Fixings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
