Bandsaw hydraulic downfeed fittings

[pawsnizzy]

Hi All,
Putting together the above for my 6x4 bandsaw using bits lying around - I have now encountered a connection problem


Being a Sparky by trade, using conduit, a running coupling would be perfect! This obviously won't be ok hydraulically - can some one please educate me? (it's all 1/4BSP)

I'm also struggling to find similar size fittings - Am I looking in the wrong places? I want to find a 1/4BSP all Male Tee connector so I can fit a one way valve

Thanks in advance

For small pipe fittings I will often use T-Mex

there is also a 3 way male tee in ¼ bsp on ebay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1-4-Bsp-...874834&hash=item19d176dbe4:g:1GUAAOxypNtSl7Jb

Cheers Gareth - I've been looking for days and didn't find that

I think the pipe equivalent of a running coupling is called a union.

For iron fittings, the Georg Fischer catalogue is a good guide to what is (in theory) available:
