DIYers, plumbers, and small-shop mechanics who work with flexible hose systems need a 3-way fitting that holds tight under pressure and doesn't corrode after a season outdoors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eEach fitting is machined from \u003cstrong\u003e304 stainless steel\u003c\/strong\u003e and features one BSP female threaded inlet port paired with two barbed hose tail outlets.
