When you need to turn one gas line into two, you don't want to mess around with flimsy plastic fittings or leaky connections. The Western Enterprises WES111-5 Brass Y-Connector is the heavy-duty solution for welders and fabricators who need reliable gas distribution. Made from solid brass, this fitting is tough enough to handle the knocks and drops of a busy shop floor while resisting rust and corrosion. It's the kind of hardware you install once and forget about, knowing it will hold up under pressure.
This Y-fitting is perfect for setting up dual-shielding gas lines, running a purge line alongside your torch, or splitting a compressed air drop for two different tools. It features a 1/4-inch male NPT thread on the bottom to screw directly into your regulator, manifold, or supply pipe, and provides two 1/4-inch female NPT ports at the top. This setup lets you easily attach standard hose barbs or couplers to branch out your system. Rated for 200 PSI, it handles standard shop air and welding gas pressures with ease.
Why choose a Y-fitting over a T-fitting? The angled design of the Y-connector helps smooth out the flow of gas or air, reducing restriction and ensuring both lines get a steady supply. Plus, the brass threads are cut cleanly to bite into your tape or sealant for a seal that won't hiss at you when you turn the bottle on. Whether you are customizing your welding cart or expanding your shop's air system, this simple, rugged adapter is a must-have in your fittings drawer.
