what is this fitting called?

[bigdawg]

I know its a rather stupid question but I am trying to buy three way stopcock valve fitting so that I can use it to prime a HPLC pump; however, I just dont know what they are called?!? we've always had them here on site and never had to order them ever; however I am looking online, and while I am able to find quite a few 3 way stopcocks, I just cant find any with screw on fittings and was hoping if someone here knew what its called so I can order it.

Thanks!

Maybe you will find it here:https://www.idex-hs.com/catalogsearch/result/index/?p=3&q=3+way+male+valve

Have you tried Hamilton ?

thanks for the reply Peter Apps and Gerhard Kratz. I feel knowing that these fittings dont have some special name and are just some proprietary fittings. I am looking at both of their catalogs now, hopefully I find something similar.

Hollow: thanks for suggesting another manufacturer, I'll look into that one too.

Ivan, Thanks a lot for telling me the actual name of these fittings! I almost got a heart attack when I saw its list price, around 130 bucks since this was for a side project of mine, I think I might have to make do with something else. Thanks a lot though !

Two ways you can go for an economical substitute - medical supplies; the plumbing for drip bags, or agricultural; micro-irrigation systems.

Good luck.

Peter, thanks for the idea. I checked those options and they seem way cheaper than what omnifit T valves cost. I am trying to keep the costs as low as possible since this is for a side project of mine to salvage old HPLC systems and put them in my local high school. I have got the pump and the detectors for this pretty cheap (less than 600 bucks); and I am writing my own data acquisition software so that's free; but the high cost items relatively speaking is ferrules, fittings and tubings.
