Split one automotive hose into two angled lines or join three equal-sized hoses with a secure Y-shaped connection.
The Clipstok Y-Piece Automotive Hose Connector is designed for creating a three-way connection in compatible automotive hose systems. It is a practical replacement for damaged or broken original Y-connectors and can also be used when repairing or modifying an existing hose assembly.
All three ribbed connection points are the same size, making these connectors suitable for hoses with matching internal diameters. The angled Y-shaped layout is useful where the two branch hoses need to run away from the main hose in separate directions.
Suitable applications may include:
Vacuum hoses
Breather and ventilation hoses
Windscreen washer hoses
Coolant overflow and return hoses
Fuel vapour and emission-control hoses
General automotive air and fluid hoses
Vehicle restoration and custom workshop projects
Always confirm that the selected connector size, hose material and any clamps used are suitable for the fluid, temperature and operating pressure of the system being repaired.
These Y-piece hose connectors are manufactured in Europe from glass fibre-reinforced Polyamide 6.
This material provides good strength and temperature resistance for demanding automotive workshop applications. It is resistant to a range of common automotive substances, including:
Hydrocarbon and mineral oils
Fuel
Cooling system fluids
Weak acids and alkalis
The connectors are suitable for prolonged use in temperatures ranging from −40°C to +140°C.
The listed size refers to the size of each of the three ribbed hose connections.
For example, a 4 mm x 4 mm x 4 mm Y connector is designed to join three compatible hoses with an internal diameter of approximately 4 mm.
Measure the internal diameter of the original hoses before selecting a connector. Each hose should fit firmly over the ribbed connection. Use suitable hose clamps where required by the application.
