Nice. I got an ali version from SiFab Not so sure that I’m happy with this new stainless T today. Should have got a Sifab ali one…  Out of curiosity today I measured the voltage between the T and the ali rad cooling fins. It was showing around 1v, which is about 3 times more than the other stainless pipework in the cooling system is generating (there are many grades of stainless with a range of different noble potentials). Now I’m suspecting that introducing this grade of stainless is not an ideal mix for the longevity of my super expensive ali rad from a galvanic perspective. I could well be wrong... but have ordered up an aluminum T anyway. ![[Linked Image]](https://tm-img.com/images/2024/02/14/T-volts.jpeg) Now that Si-fab is no more, where do you source from? Can’t see any on Fleabay or carbuilder.

I've got to get around to changing that T this winter. Rog does the link show the size required?
If I can't buy a welded one I shall make one, but my tig welding is not too good so I might take the fun way out and make from solid.

I’ve just ordered this one John. As far as I can see the link shows it. Fingers crossed it should be ok! My internal hose diameters are around 16mm. ![[Linked Image]](https://tm-img.com/images/2024/02/14/ali-t.jpeg)

Much appreciated, Rog. However, will wait and see how it fits before getting one. I saw them on fleabay when looking but was a little wary of the diameter of the barb versus the more tapered, multi barbed designs. The Viper ones suggested by Geoff are multi barbed though a tad more expensive., when adding on postage etc. Be good to have a report back when done. Thanks.

I would go with the Viper multi barbed one. Plain ones with just the one lip can be difficult to get a water tight seal on especially with old hoses.

Be good to have a report back when done No problem Doug. Don't think it will be an issue. It’s the same shape/profile as the other spouts the hose connects to on the car - thermostat, header tank, head outlet manifold etc.
