Brass Y-fitting double male outlet quick connector

Discover the Brass Y-fitting double male outlet quick connector Multitanks (Reference: 100438), an advanced technical solution to efficiently split your irrigation circuit. This professional diverter fitting transforms a single water supply into two independent outlets, offering maximum flexibility for your domestic or commercial irrigation installations.

Designed with a 3/4" BSP female inlet and two male outlets equipped with quick connectors, this Y-fitting guarantees secure and watertight connections for all your watering equipment. Its high-quality brass construction ensures exceptional resistance to weather and corrosion.

Applications and advantages of the double outlet Y-fitting

This Y-fitting perfectly meets the needs of amateur and professional gardeners who want to optimize their watering system. It allows simultaneous connection of two garden hoses, automatic sprinklers, sprinklers or drip irrigation systems from a single water source.

Typical applications include watering separate lawns and flower beds, connecting an automatic irrigation system with a manual water point, or creating distinct watering zones with independent timers. This versatility makes it an essential element for medium and large gardens.

Using a Y-fitting also allows you to reduce watering times by irrigating multiple zones simultaneously, while maintaining adequate water pressure on each circuit thanks to its optimized hydraulic design.

Technical specifications and materials

The brass used for this Y-fitting is a copper and zinc alloy offering remarkable mechanical and chemical properties. Its natural resistance to corrosion, even in the presence of chlorinated or hard water, guarantees an exceptional lifespan of several decades without performance degradation.

The 3/4" BSP female inlet (British Standard Pipe) complies with international plumbing standards, ensuring perfect compatibility with most outdoor taps, pressure reducers and water supply systems. The BSP tapered thread creates progressive sealing during tightening, eliminating leak risks.

The two male outlets are equipped with quick connectors allowing instant connection with standard garden hoses. These cam connectors integrate nitrile rubber O-rings resistant to UV and thermal variations, maintaining watertightness in all weather conditions.

Installation and practical use

Y-fitting installation requires no specialized tools and can be completed in just a few minutes. Start by screwing the female inlet onto your tap or pressure reducer, applying moderate tightening torque to avoid damaging the threads.

For quick connections, simply pull the notched ring backward, insert the hose fitting until it stops, then release the ring which locks automatically. A light traction test confirms proper attachment. Disconnection is done by pulling the ring again while removing the hose.

Usage tip: If you use hoses of different diameters or variable flow rates on each outlet, install individual pressure regulators to balance the flows. In winter, completely drain the fitting to avoid freezing which could damage the seals.

Maintenance is limited to occasional cleaning with a soft brush and soapy water to remove lime deposits. Brass may develop a natural patina that protects the metal without affecting hydraulic performance.
