Value Collection PC72GS-86 Male Swivel Branch Tee

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION PC72GS-86 is a push-to-connect male swivel branch tee fitting designed for use in pneumatic and fluid distribution lines. It accepts tubing with a 1/2 inch outside diameter and connects to threaded ports via a 3/8 inch NPT male thread. The swivel branch design allows rotational adjustment of the branch port after installation, simplifying alignment in tight or congested plumbing runs. Constructed from polyoxymethylene (POM), this fitting offers good chemical resistance and dimensional stability. It is rated to 150 psi and is well suited for plumbing, pneumatic, and light industrial fluid handling applications.

This fitting is commonly used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems, pneumatic control lines, and fluid distribution assemblies where a branch connection with push-to-connect convenience is needed. The male swivel branch tee allows a main tube run to continue while a branch line is added at the threaded port, making it useful during new installations or service calls where quick, tool-free tubing connections are required. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and industrial maintenance technicians are the typical installers.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by plumbers or maintenance technicians. Depressurize and drain the system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Ensure tubing is cut cleanly and squarely and that the outside diameter is free of burrs before inserting into the push-to-connect port. Apply thread sealant or tape appropriate for the fluid service to the NPT male threads before engaging the threaded port.
