Is it safe to split my CPU header 3 ways?

I currently have my CPU header split 2 ways in a push pull configuration on my radiator as intake using the noctua NF-F12 "industrial black version" 2000 rpm and I would like to add a third "system exhaust" to the CPU header so it will run at the same rpm as the other two, but my concern is these are high speed fans and don't want to stress the CPU header. My mobo is a Gigabyte z170n rev:1.1
 
Solution
Better plug it in SYS-Fan or CHA_Fan. 3 on one header with such fans would probably be too much and no real need for because of different places temps are measured.
