GENTLE UYD Reducer Y Quick Coupler｜Different-Diameter Splitter

• Reducing Y Split: Two symmetric outlets share the same size while the third port is a different diameter—use for large→small splitting or small→large merging to bridge mismatched sizes.
• All Push-to-Connect: Three thread-free ports—no PTFE tape, tool-free install/removal for faster service.
• Sealing & Retention: O-ring sealing with a metal collet and release ring maintains airtightness under vibration and pull loads.
• Lower ΔP, Fewer Parts: One-piece reducing Y shortens the flow path versus "standard Y + separate reducer," cutting turns, pressure loss, and leak points.
• Taiwan-Made, Dual Colors: Black or grey-white (-GW) for clean identification across circuits or equipment zones.
• Applications: Legacy/new tool integration with step-down branches, dual-end effectors with different ODs, long-run splits needing stable flow, and synchronized feeds where branch sizes differ.

Q1: How does UYD differ from UY?
A: UY has three equal-diameter ports. UYD provides a different-diameter third port, enabling built-in reducing with the Y split.

Q2: When should I choose UYD over TBY (threaded Y)?
A: Choose TBY when you must fasten to valves or metal piping. Choose UYD for tube-to-tube reducing with quick, tool-free service.

Q3: Which tubing sizes and materials are supported?
A: Nylon (PA) and polyurethane (PU) metric tubing; models include 6→4, 8→6, 10→8, and 12→10 mm step-downs covering the 4–12 mm family.

Q4: Any installation/removal tips?
A: Cut the tube end square and deburr; push fully to the stop and perform a light pull test. For removal, press the release ring evenly before pulling to protect the O-ring and collet.

Q5: Is there a fixed flow direction?
A: No. Any port can be inlet or outlet. For balanced splitting, use single-port in and dual-port out.

Q6: What operating range and durability should I expect?
A: Reference 0–0.9 MPa and 5–60 °C. In vibrating environments, secure the body near the branch to shorten unsupported spans and reduce fatigue.

Q7: Is it reusable?
A: Yes. If leakage or grip loss occurs, replace the entire fitting.

Q8: Can it be used with vacuum or liquids?
A: Primarily for compressed air. For vacuum or liquids, verify material compatibility and validate under actual operating conditions.
