PRODUCT INFORMATION T-Piece Connector / Universal Manifold A versatile building-block, the TRUDESIGN® T-Piece Connector functions not only as a T-Piece but also as an expandable manifold. The TRUDESIGN® T-Piece Connector features two 1½” female parallel threads and one 1½” male parallel thread allowing manifolds to be created simply by joining two or more parts together. This allows users to channel multiple drains to one Ball Valve–Skin Fitting thru-hull outlet, eliminating the need for additional thru-hull fittings. The flexibility of the TRUDESIGN® T-Piece Connector allows:     Mixed sizes of hose tail fittings to select from to suit ¾”, 1”, 1¼” & 1½” I.D hose Neat and tidy routing of hoses with a range of hose tail directions available including straight, 90°, & 120° Direct connection to a 1½” Ball Valve or 1½” (above waterline) Skin Fitting Connection to plumbing pipework or a secondary Ball Valve with use of the Threaded Connector The TRUDESIGN® T-Piece Connector is commonly used in glycol/antifreeze flush-through systems when preparing for winterization, or, in fresh water engine flush systems. By adding a plug to the female end, the T-Piece Connector can function as an inspection port for looking through to, or clearing the internals of a Ball Valve. Key Features: Feature: User selectable hose tails Varying sizes of hose (from ¾” to 1½”) can connect to one T-Piece Create multi-port manifolds easily by joining two or more T-Pieces Ability to secure to a wall or bulkhead* By attaching the TRUDESIGN® T-Piece Wall Bracket Manufactured from a glass-reinforced nylon composite High strength and light weight Immune to corrosion and electrolysis Long- life with no concerns over decreased performance due to corrosion Chemical resistant Unaffected by diesel, petrol and chemicals BSPP (Parallel) threads Universal compatibility to TRUDESIGN® Ball Valves, threaded fittings, and other marine components.

PRODUCT INFORMATION Installation: 1.) Ensure all fittings that the T-Piece Connector is attaching with have clean and undamaged threads. 2.) Apply a small amount of a suitable marine grade thread sealant such as SIKAFLEX® 291i or 3M™ Fast Cure 5200 to the male threads, or wind several turns of PTFE thread sealing tape onto the threads (clockwise when viewed from the bottom of the thread). Tip – when creating manifolds or large assemblies, perform a ‘dry’ fit of parts then fit in vessel to check clearances before applying any sealants or thread tape. 3.) Screw down fully, ensuring not to...
