The problem it solves: Splits one pneumatic tube line into two lines while keeping the two branches in a Y-shaped route.
Festo series to look for: Festo QSY push-in Y-connectors, part of the QS push-in fitting range. Festo lists equal QSY models for tube outside diameters from 4 to 16 mm.
Festo's present QS data sheet includes QSY = Y couplings such as QSY-4, QSY-6, QSY-8, QSY-10, QSY-12, and QSY-16.
Areas of application: Control panels, pneumatic automation components, cylinders, valves, air distribution system, and compressed air connections.
Lower-cost alternative: AirTAC or Techno equal Y connectors.
Summary: VS Enterprises supplies Festo equal Y fittings from Noida.

A few practical details to help you frame your next engineering project.
Use a Y connector when the two branch tubes need to follow a more gradual, side-by-side direction. A tee is better for a direct 90° branch.
Yes, standard QSY equal Y-connectors have the same tube size at all three connections. Festo also offers reducing Y versions for selected combinations.
Check the tube outside diameter, required airflow, pressure and application before selecting the exact QSY part number.
