Anyone know a supplier? I could build it out of brass fittings but it get's too big. And actually I can't get 5/8" anyway.

I picked up some fittings from Home Depot which said not for hot water... well they're right. After a few weeks they aren't going to hold for much longer.

I see nylon on McMaster Carr. But it does not have a temp rating. I think what I'm using is polypropelene. I don't expect PVC to last either.

I'd be happy to try and get a 3/4" or even a 1/2" T to work.

TIA,
Bill

Thanks, NAPA would have been convenient, but unfortunately I just ordered from McMaster Carr. I just hope my old plastic ones hold until the brass one's come.
