Hex muti connector brass fitting

Post by Flash »

Can anyone help me find this Hex male brass muti jointer with 4 female ins so that I can hook up a large pressure gage, air, water and pop off value like on the big foot pad. Not sure of the true name of the part either.

Here is a pic of what I'm looking for: http://images.search.yahoo.com/images/v ... =yfp-t-900

Thanks,

Looks like a manifold for a compressor tank. Might try Grainger.

That is not one part. It is made from several individual parts all of which you can find at Lowe's or Home Depot. The male-to-male (female on both ends) coupler has been drilled and tapped to give it the additional female openings.

Tony maybe your are right, but I have one problem with that guess, the Hex brass section also has a blue dia type shut off value on the back side that looks factory. I guess that could be a mod to, just seems to point to a factory part to me?

Thank you!
