steve is correct

now for the 'classroom':

tees are always 'called' run-run-branch

run-run is always stated largest size first

however, in sanitary situations, there is a flow direction for the fitting so the smallest run is an INLET

Author: ArthurPeabody (NM) Thanks. I passed by a store that sells such things the other day, stopped in, see that 2 x 1 1/2 x 2 is the one I want. Odd that the Charlotte Pipe catalogue doesn't have this in the legend. Edited 1 times.
