Description

This 1/2″ Brass Barstock Cross (also known as a 4-way pipe fitting) is engineered to connect, split, or combine fluid and pneumatic distribution paths at perfect 90-degree intersections. Machined from high-quality, solid brass barstock, this fitting features four identical 1/2″ female pipe threaded ports in a single, compact block profile, offering superior structural strength over standard cast brass fittings for industrial and commercial plumbing systems.

Key Specifications

• Ports 1–4: 1/2″ FPT (Female Pipe Thread)

• Material: Solid Brass Barstock (Extruded/Machined)

• Thread Profile: Standard NPT (National Pipe Thread)

• Design: 4-Way Equal Cross (Square Block Profile)

Product Highlights

• Premium Barstock Construction: Machined directly from a solid block of extruded brass rather than being cast. This barstock design yields thicker, more uniform walls completely free of casting porosity, providing exceptional resistance to high structural stress, internal pressure, and thread stripping.

• 4-Way Distribution: Allows you to split a single incoming line into three separate directions, or combine three input lines into a single discharge header, minimizing the space and extra fittings required for complex manifolds.

• Corrosion-Resistant Material: Solid brass provides excellent natural resistance to rust, scale, and environmental corrosion. It is fully compatible with systems handling water, oil, gas, compressed air, and automotive fluids.

• Wrench-Friendly Flat Surfaces: The square barstock exterior creates broad, flat wrench pads on all sides. This allows open-end, adjustable, or pipe wrenches to maintain a secure grip for high-torque tightening without slipping or distorting the internal threads.
