3 way pipe fitting

[mbalbritton]

Anyone know if there's a 3 way cast pipe fitting that's flat and each leg is at 120* to each other? I've tried searching and can't come across anything?

Never have seen anything like that.

It's a 120degree wye fitting, but I can't find any cast ones. They are all PVC:

I don't think this is what you're looking for, but technically it meets all your requirements:

What size pipe?
Ive got a contact, if its made I can get it cheap.

1" pipe.

Trying to design up a Brewing stand. If there's not a fitting like this, I have an alternate idea that'll work just as well. thanks.

ya Matt, not really what I'm looking for, but it does meet the requirements I specified.

I have an alternate plan if I can find this. I can go with a "T" and have 1 long pipe and 2 short ones. I'm making plans for a brewing stand and want to hold my brew kettle at 3 points Instead of Option A I can do Option B.

What material? Threaded? Hub and spigot? Butt weld? Socket weld?

It is called a True Wye fitting and are readily available in multiple materials and connection type.

get a Tee and 2 - 45 degree steet elbows....

I just stuck this together real quick. It's not quite got the 120 degrees of separation, but close.

If your not flowing fluid through it, why not take a piece of 2" and cope the 3 legs to it and weld away.

From a search, that's the one I'm looking for.

That'll work too.

because that's just too much work for me to bother with when there's simpler options. I did consider that though.

If you're trying to go the no weld route, you're still going to need another leg attached at the middle in the "z" axis right?

Absolutely

What are you going to use for the base? Too bad you're so far away, this would take less than 30 minutes to make going the welded route. Are you using a keg for the kettle?

I'd bet at this point you've spent more time/effort trying to find this mystery part, and asking us, than it would have taken to just weld something up...

But then again, it's always more fun to waste other people's time than your own

Actually, what I'm looking to do is to put some form into the function. We've all seem the pipe constructed tables and lamps and...

Well, I came across 3 old pipe wrenches at an antique store. And I thought they would look pretty cool and function perfectly to hold my Keggles (keg converted to kettle). Open the mouth of the wrenches up to fit around the rim of the keg and have the handle come out and through a pipe or into a "T" fitting. And build the frame out of pipes and connectors.

Ya I could walk back into the shop and weld up a frame in a few hours, but I have a look I want to go for as well. I'll post pictures as I go along with it.
