A brass manifold tee that connects to a CGA 580 storage valve and allows the connection of a CGA 580 pigtail or nut and tailpiece to each side. For inert gas (Helium / Argon) to 3000 psi. Additional Info: To join a series of commercial gas cylinders of the same CGA type, MANIFOLD TEES and PIGTAILS are needed. These are usually made of brass and copper, although stainless steel is sometimes needed at high pressures or in marine environments. TEES attach directly to the CGA tank valve, thereby providing two extra CGA outlets to interconnect two additional cylinders. Interconnections are made with a PIGTAIL, a metal, looped tube (or hose) with CGA nuts on each end. Loop construction permits spacing adjustments between cylinders and also absorbs sonic vibrations during compressing operations. Pigtails can interconnect tees or go directly to a compatible CGA tank valve.
