I have found brass T's but not Y's. Just got a torch upgrade and am going to need to split my hoses. Anyone know where to get brass Y's?
where did you look? all of the welding stores here carry them.

Wale has brass y connectors. I think ABR does as well. They have b style fittings, not barbs.
I recently acquired a mirage and just picked up some brass tees and barb adapters at Lowes to hold me over until my foot pedal arrives. They work fine and are cheaper than getting the y connectors.

yeah I need the barbed or how do I hook up to the Y with the cut end of a torch? I know there must be another piece to make them fit up.

That A2 adapter would work now where's a Y with female fittings on all three sides? All I've seen so far is one's to hook up to a reg. but I think I used to have one like with 3 female's.
Thanks for the info people

what ? do you mean male ? theres a Y higher on page from A2 and a manifold with six below ( you can get caps for unused ports , or Im sure one with only 3 or whatever you need ) . The end of the hose is female even cut so male I think is what you want .

You could go to this site, and view what is currently being manufactured (this is not a retail site)...

Once you find the fittings you desire you can probably order them by brand name and part number from local welding supplier or if your glass supplies source is really good, then can find them for you....
Or maybe try some place like McMaster...

The stuff is out there, you just got to work a bit to find it...

when i made my pedal, i found a place that has really cheap, but nice quality brass fittings. they dont sell "B" fittings, but if you just want barbs on each end like i did, they work perfect. they have just about anything you could want, you just have to find the right stuff....

they are made for pressure washers, so they are good for pressure use as well, hope it helps, and good luck! :bouncy:
