The Dapetz 3 Way Y Connector (DP14228) is an essential tool for workshop professionals and DIY enthusiasts who need to power multiple pneumatic tools from a single air compressor output. This versatile manifold allows you to split one air line into two, effectively streamlining your workflow and reducing the need for constant tool swapping. While the system provides excellent utility for multi-tool setups, users should ensure their compressor has sufficient CFM capacity to handle the load of two running tools simultaneously to avoid performance drops.

Yes, this set includes a bayonet connector that is fully compatible with PCL Vertex air systems.
The fittings are equipped with standard 1/4 inch BSP male threads.
Yes, it acts as a splitter, but ensure your compressor provides enough air volume (CFM) to support both tools simultaneously.
No, the kit does not include thread sealing tape; we recommend applying your own for a leak-proof connection.
Yes, the components are durable enough for workshop and garage environments, though it is best to keep them dry when not in use.
Ensure you have applied adequate PTFE thread sealant tape to the male BSP threads and tightened the connection with a wrench.
Check the bayonet collar for debris or dust and ensure the female receiver is not obstructed.
This is a limitation of the compressor capacity, not the fitting. Run tools one at a time or upgrade to a larger compressor tank.
To install the connector, ensure your compressor is turned off and the air line is completely depressurized. Apply a small amount of thread sealant or PTFE tape to the 1/4 inch BSP male threads before screwing them into your hose ends to prevent leaks. Once installed, simply press the quick-release bayonet fittings into your existing PCL Vertex-compatible sockets until they click into place.
To maintain the longevity of the brass and metal components, keep the fittings free of debris and dirt. If the quick-release mechanism feels stiff, a light application of pneumatic tool oil can help maintain a smooth connection.
