This three-way fitting allows a branch line to split off from a main run, making it a standard component in water supply, compressed air, and fluid distribution lines. At 0.13 pounds, the compact form factor suits tight spaces while maintaining the structural integrity expected from solid brass construction.

Its lead-free brass composition meets requirements for potable water applications, making it appropriate for drinking water supply lines as well as general plumbing distribution.
