Boshart BF-44 Flare Tee Fitting, 3-Way Branch Connector for Gas, Oil, Air and Water Lines
The Boshart BF-44 Flare Tee is a three-way flare fitting built for rough-in plumbing and heating work where gas, oil, air, or water lines need to branch off a single run. It is designed to mate with aluminum, brass, copper, and steel tubing using a standard flare connection, giving installers a reliable mechanical joint that does not require soldering or solvent welding. This flare tee is available in 3/8" and 1/2" sizes, so contractors and distributors can match the fitting to the tubing already in use on a given job while keeping a consistent flare connection style across the line. Because it is a flare-style fitting, the BF-44 can be disassembled and reassembled multiple times without compromising the seal, which makes it a practical choice for service work, equipment changeouts, and situations where a line may need to be reopened down the road. Each unit ships as part of a 25-piece package, making this SKU well suited for contractors and distributors who need to stock a consistent supply for ongoing jobs across both available sizes.
