-
What are tee pieces and y-pieces used for?
Tee pieces and y-pieces are used to split fluid or air flow in hydraulic, oil, fuel, and brake systems. They allow multiple lines to be connected efficiently while maintaining a secure and leak-free connection.
-
What is the difference between a t-piece and a y-piece?
- Aluminium t-pieces and stainless steel t-pieces have a perpendicular outlet for equal fluid distribution.
- Aluminium y-pieces create a smoother split in fluid flow, reducing turbulence and pressure loss.
-
Why choose an aluminium tee over a stainless steel tee?
Aluminium tee pieces are lightweight and corrosion-resistant, making them ideal for performance and motorsport applications. Stainless steel tee pieces, on the other hand, provide superior strength and durability for high-pressure systems.
-
What is a brake line tee piece used for?
A brake line tee piece is designed to evenly distribute brake fluid to multiple lines in braking systems. It ensures balanced braking performance in motorsport and high-performance vehicles.
-
Are t-pieces and y-pieces suitable for fuel systems?
Yes, both t-pieces and y-pieces can be used in fuel systems. Choosing the right material, such as aluminium or stainless steel, ensures compatibility with different fuel types and operating conditions.
-
How do I install a tee piece in a hydraulic or fuel system?
Follow these steps for proper installation:
- Ensure all connection points are clean and free of debris.
- Choose the correct size and thread type for your system.
- Use appropriate sealing methods, such as thread sealant or O-rings, to prevent leaks.
- Secure fittings with the recommended torque settings.
-
What are the benefits of using a y-piece over a t-piece?
-
Can tee pieces be used in brake systems?
Yes, tee pieces are commonly used in brake systems, particularly in brake line splitters, to distribute brake fluid evenly between multiple brake lines.
-
What sizes are available for aluminium and stainless steel tee pieces?
Aluminium t-pieces and stainless steel t-pieces are available in various sizes to match different fluid system requirements. Common sizes include M10 x 1.00, AN3, AN4, AN6, AN8, AN10, and AN12, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of applications.
-
How do I choose between an aluminium t-piece and a stainless steel t-piece?
Consider these factors:
- Aluminium t-pieces are lighter and ideal for motorsport and performance applications.
- Stainless steel t-pieces offer enhanced durability and are better suited for high-pressure and harsh environments.
