Brass Push-Lock Male Branch Tee - Two 3/8in Tube Ends x 3/8in Swivel Pipe - Eaton 1872X6X6S Sloan S272PMT-6-6 177.13B726C

Split an air circuit cleanly with this DOT brass push-lock male branch tee distributed by FleetPro Parts & Tires. It carries two 3/8in tube ends that connect opposite each other with a 3/8in swivel pipe end branching off, so one supply line can feed a valve, a gauge port or a second circuit without cutting and splicing the run. A cracked or leaking tee is a slow bleed that shows up as a compressor that never shuts off, a low-air buzzer at idle, and a truck that airs down in the yard overnight. Manufactured by Automann to Fleet Standard specifications, we stock these heavily right here in our Hanover Park, Illinois warehouse to ensure lightning-fast shipping for fleets, diesel repair shops, and owner-operators nationwide.

One Line, Two Circuits: The Push-Lock Branch Tee Advantage

Because both run legs are push-lock (PLC), 3/8in DOT nylon air brake tubing goes in with a straight push and locks — no ferrules to lose, no compression nuts to over-torque, and a clean pull-apart if the line ever has to come back out. The tubes connect opposite each other, so the tee drops into an existing straight run without re-routing anything, and the 3/8in swivel pipe end lets you thread the branch into its port at full torque and then rotate the body until both tube legs line up with the run.

The brass body handles the moisture, oil carryover and winter road chemical that live inside a heavy-duty air system, and the fitting is DOT-approved for heavy-duty air brake systems and meets FMVSS 571.106 — a brake-circuit-legal tee, not a shop-air part. At FleetPro Parts & Tires, we know a tee is where air systems most often start leaking. This Automann tee is a direct replacement for highly searched industry numbers including Eaton 1872X6X6S, Sloan S272PMT-6-6, Tectran PL13726C and Velvac 017973.
