6.4 The tee forming process with the T-DRILL T-60

Since the process may be new to you, we recommend that you read the

following instructions carefully and then practice a few times on some

pieces of scrap tubing.

NOTE! Before forming any tee always make sure that the pipe is

completely drained and that it is not under pressure



1. Select the correct T-DRILL head.

2. Check the forming pin span (T). Adjust if necessary. (See chapter

6.2.2).

3. Chuck the T-DRILL head.

4. Lubricate the T-DRILL head

before every tee forming operation!

Extend the forming pins and

lubricate them as well as the

cutting edges of the T-DRILL head

as illustrated. Always use T-

DRILL lubricant.

5. Retract forming pins. Press

the conical cover towards the tool

and rotate it clockwise to retract

the forming pins.
