An Equal Hosetail Tee is a fitting used in fluid and gas systems, typically for connecting three hoses or pipes of the same size at a right angle (forming a T-shape). This type of fitting has hosetail ends that allow hoses to be securely attached, typically by pushing the hose onto the barbed ends and securing it with a clamp. The equal designation means that all three connections (the two on the sides and one in the middle) are of the same size, making it suitable for applications where all three branches need to be connected with identical diameter hoses.
Equal Hosetail Tees are commonly used in various industries, including hydraulics, pneumatics, and water systems, where they provide a reliable and leak-resistant junction between hoses. They are typically made from materials like brass, stainless steel, or plastic, depending on the application’s requirements for durability, corrosion resistance, and pressure handling. These fittings are highly versatile and widely used in applications such as fluid distribution, irrigation systems, and air lines.
