JB T2-12 3/4" SAE Three-Way Tee
The JB T2-12 3/4" SAE Three-Way Tee is a heavy-duty, forged brass fitting engineered for reliable fluid distribution in HVACR, hydraulic, and pneumatic systems. Machined at the JB Industries facility in Aurora, Illinois, this 3/4 inch flare tee is constructed from premium C360 and C370 brass, ensuring high tensile strength and superior corrosion resistance compared to lower-quality import alternatives. The forging process eliminates potential cracks and ensures a robust SAE 45-degree flare connection on all three ends. This HVAC flare fitting and refrigerant line splitter is designed to meet or exceed SAE J513, AHRI, and ASA standards for high-pressure refrigeration service.
Specifically designed for versatility, the JB Industries T2-12 is compatible with copper, brass, aluminum, steel, and plastic tubing, provided a proper flare can be formed. It maintains a vacuum rating down to 15 microns and can handle pressures up to 5,000 psi depending on the tubing material and conditions. The dryseal threads provide a leak-proof interface and improved clearance for tightening 3/4 SAE flare nuts. For high-vibration environments, use with long flare nuts is recommended to ensure long-term connection integrity.
Key Benefits- Premium American Brass: Manufactured with 65% copper and 35% zinc to provide maximum durability and high-tensile performance.
- Forged Integrity: The forging process strengthens the brass grain structure, eliminating the risk of porosity or stress cracking under pressure.
- Standard Compliance: Conforms to strict industry guidelines, ensuring a precise leak-proof flare connection across all 3/4" ports.
- Universal Compatibility: Reliable for use with all common refrigerants including R410A, and resistant to oils and diluted mineral acids.
- Superior Sealing: Long-taper dryseal threads minimize the risk of refrigerant leaks and provide excellent make-and-break resistance.
What is the maximum pressure rating for this tee?
The T2-12 can handle pressures up to 5,000 psi; however, the actual working pressure is limited by the specific tubing used and the temperature of the application.
Can I use this for gas lines?
Yes, these forged brass fittings are suitable for LP and natural gas, as well as instrumentation and hydraulic fluids, provided local codes are followed.
Do I need a special tool for installation?
A standard HVAC flaring tool is required to prep your tubing. Ensure the flare is clean and free of burrs to maintain an airtight seal with the SAE ends.
