I am after a t-piece connector for coolant hoses. 32mm external on the 2 main connections, with 19mm branch. – Any ideas where I can get one from?
local plumbing supplies? if not, make one from a 32mm t & a 32 to 19mm reducer.
(is 19mm a standard copper pipe size?)
B&Q might have the bits you need in a super store.
Standard copper sizes are 15mm and 22mm
If you go searching places like just-solder-ring.co.uk you can find a wider choice but even then its
8mm, 10mm, 15mm, 22mm, 28mm and 35mm
where are you, if you are near the leicester area and can pop in then I can tig weld one in stainless steel for you
I got Bryn at allyfab to make me up what I needed.

mhh inox 33mmx1,5mm is an option (ISO tube)
or 30x1,5mm is an option..
Tks
easy solution, if you need 32 and 19mm then you can use a 15mm solder ring fitting and push you pipe over the outside of the fitting, which is about
18mm diameter, and use a jubilee clip to pinch it tight, and for the 32mm one use a 28mm yorkshire fitting which has a similar OD.
I once soldered a 22mm solder ring fitting INSIDE a 28mm pipe!
It lasted for trackdays without a problem.
If you are doing pipes onto the correct size pipe, crush an olive on with a compression fitting first then remove the fitting and nut, the olive will
help hold the pipe on.

I used 32mm ally pipe sourced of ebay for a couple of quid and half of an alloy hose joiner sourced with my silicon hoses for a few pounds.
A bit of tig welding and job done!!
