Parallel Tube Connectors — 1-to-2, 1-to-3, 1-to-4
Manifolded connectors that split one line into two, three or four parallel paths in a single moulded body, replacing a chain of tees and their leak points.
Overview
A parallel tube connector splits one line into two, three or four in a single moulded body. The alternative is a chain of tees, and every tee is a joint that can weep and a piece an assembler has to fit. Consolidating them into one part removes both. We mould the 1-to-2, 1-to-3 and 1-to-4 with Luer-compatible ends, in a body sized so the branches sit at usable spacing rather than crowded together. Supplied as a bulk component to set assemblers who are currently building the same function out of separate fittings.

Questions distributors ask
Is this cheaper than using tees?
Usually yes once assembly labour is counted, and always fewer leak paths. A 1-to-3 replaces two tees and four joints with one part and three joints. Price the assembled cost, not the piece price.
Can I get a 1-to-5 or higher?
Not from stock tooling. At that point a manifold body is the better part — it gives you flow control per branch as well as the split. Ask about the manifold if you need more than four.
