Three-way valve

Three-way connectors are pipe fittings used for pipe connections. Also known as tee fittings, three-way pipe, or three-way joints, they are used where the main pipeline needs to branch off.

A three-way fitting is a type of industrial pipeline component with one inlet and two outlets; or two inlets and one outlet. It comes in T-shaped and Y-shaped designs, with both equal and unequal diameter outlets, used at junctions where three identical or different pipelines converge. The primary function of a three-way fitting is to alter the fluid direction.
