00:00Alright folks, if you've ever dealt with a leaky oil line, you know how frustrating it is,
00:04and half the time, it's the fitting that's the problem. So I went digging through the internet
00:09and found the 5 best brass tee fittings for oil lines, and honestly, some of these prices made
00:14me do a double take. Let's get right into it. Kicking things off at number 1 is this brass
00:20hose barb tee, and the thing I love about it is the sheer range of sizes, it comes in everything
00:24from 4mm all the way up to 19, and it can even do reducing setups, so you can join
00:29three different sized hoses in one fitting. It's got a 4.9 rating with nearly 5,000 sold,
00:35and at just $2.79, this is the one I'd grab if you're working with push-on hose on an
00:41oil line.
00:42For the price, it's an absolute no-brainer. Number 2 is for those of you who want proper
00:48threaded connections instead of barbs. This one gives you BSPP female and male options in sizes
00:54from an eighth of an inch up to three quarters, and it's a true three-way equal tee, so all
00:58three
00:58ports match, super clean for branching and oil feed. It's sitting at 4.8 stars with over 4,000
01:04sold, and at $3.43, you're paying pocket change for a fitting that'll outlast the rest of your
01:09plumbing. Now number 3 is a bit of a specialist, and it's exactly why it made the list.
01:16This is a male-by-female-by-female tee, which is perfect when you've got a male thread coming off
01:20your pump or filter head and need to run two female branches off it, a situation where a standard
01:25equal tee just won't work. It's rocking a perfect 5.0 rating, nearly 4,000 sold, and at $3.77,
01:33it solves one of the most annoying fitting problems out there for under $4.
01:38Coming in at number 4, and this one's my personal favorite, is a Y-Type 3-Way Ball Valve.
01:43That built-in shut-off means you can isolate a section of your oil line without draining the
01:47whole system, which is a lifesaver during maintenance. It comes in 6, 8, and 10mm barb sizes,
01:54it's rated 4.7 with over 3,500 sold, and yeah, at $5.68 it's the priciest on the list,
02:01but you're basically getting a fitting and a valvin' one. Worth every cent.
02:06And rounding things out at number 5 is this pneumatic-style BSPT, and honestly,
02:11it's the budget sleeper of the bunch. It comes in sizes from an eighth of an inch up to a
02:16half inch,
02:17with male and female thread options, and it handles oil, gas, water, and air without breaking a sweat.
02:23It's rated 4.7 with over 1,800 sold, and at just $2.85, it's a great pick if you
02:29just need a solid,
02:30no-fuss tea to get the job done. So those are my top 5 brass tea fittings for oil lines,
02:36links to all of them are down in the description, so go check which sizes fit your setup.
