Anderson Metals 754044-04 Forged Brass Flare Tee 1/4 in

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS 754044-04 is a forged brass flare tee designed for use in refrigeration, HVAC, and fuel gas piping systems where a reliable three-way flare connection is required. Built from forged brass, this fitting accepts 1/4 inch flare connections on all three ports. The manufacturing process meets lead content requirements, with no more than 0.25% weighted average lead content on wetted surfaces. Licensed HVAC technicians and plumbers install this fitting where a branch takeoff is needed in a flare-type line set or fuel supply line.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial HVAC applications, refrigerant line work, and natural gas or LP fuel gas distribution where flare fittings are specified. The 1/4 inch size is common in refrigerant suction and liquid line work as well as small-diameter gas supply runs. Each fitting is individually flag tagged for easy identification in the field.
