you can build it at a fraction of the cost......you can get the brass block tee and the nipples at your local hardware store and then just put the male and female quick connects on it

Jim I think you have got the tinkering all buggered up. It isn't cheaper to build it yourself at least not at our price. Figure up the prices for 2 Parker Females 1 Parker Male 2 1/4mpt 90's and a Street T then add in the time to go find the parts and then get back to me on what it cost you.
I'm not sure what your time is worth but if it takes you more then 5 minutes to do all that then it is one very expensive splitter your building.

Warren,
Have you dual wanded with this truckmount before?
I ask that because if you haven't, a splitter won't work with 2 wands, unless it is fed by a 3/8" ID pressure line, and then split into two 1/4" steam lines.
You can't get enough flow for 2 wands unless it is set up 3/8" to two 1/4".

Where are you buying Parker Hanifin SS Females for $3.33? I want to order 2000 of them right now. Hell if I could get brass that cheap i'll order 2000 as well and 1.46 for stainless? Please tell me where.

I agree!! I just paid about $15 for a set of Parker 60 Series QD's, and they were brass. I'd love to grab some SS QD's for that price.

I keep one 100' section of double wire 3/8" solution hose wrapped on the inside of my vacuum reel. Doesn't take up much space there. On the working end I have a brass tee with shutoff valve and two female quick couplers. Don't use it very often, usually for high pressure stuff and big jobs. As Bob Savage very correctly noted you can't dual off of a 1/4" line unless doing upholstery.
Thanks,
Lee
