Key Features & Benefits

This little fitting basically splits an air line into two. It takes the air coming from one line, and lets it flow into two separate lines. It’s called a “tee” because if you look at it, that’s the shape it makes. The “female” part means it has threads inside the fitting where the air lines screw in. And “Plug – On” just tells you it’s designed to connect directly to the air lines, you don’t need any extra adapters usually. You’ll find these all over the air brake system on trucks, trailers, buses – anything with air brakes. They're used for things like powering up air bags, connecting to the trailer’s brakes, or supplying air to various components. Basically, anywhere you need to split the air line to feed more than one thing, you'll find a tee fitting. They’re a fundamental part of how the whole air system works.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Air brakes are, obviously, pretty critical for safety. If this tee fails—if it cracks, leaks, or gets corroded—you lose air pressure to whatever system it's feeding. You’ll notice if something is wrong because you’ll likely have a warning light come on, or the brakes might feel spongy or weak. This fitting acts like a shield, ensuring air gets where it needs to go. Losing air pressure is a big deal, so it's essential to keep these in good working order. You can find replacements pretty easily. Fixparts Online carries a good range of them, and getting the right size and thread type is key. It’s a small part, but it plays a big role in keeping everything safe and functioning correctly.
