NE135B - Miller Oxygen Y-Manifold Splitter B-Connection 9/16-18 RH

Miller NE135B Oxygen Manifold: Precision Gas Distribution

The Miller NE135B Manifold is a specialized gas distribution component designed for professional oxy-fuel welding and cutting applications. Engineered to facilitate the splitting of a single oxygen supply source into two distinct lines, this manifold is an essential accessory for workshops requiring versatility and efficiency. Constructed from high-quality solid brass, the NE135B offers superior resistance to corrosion and mechanical wear, ensuring it can withstand the rigors of daily industrial use. The unit features a standard B-Size configuration, utilizing 9/16"-18 Right-Hand (RH) threads, which is the industry standard for oxygen fittings in North America. This ensures seamless compatibility with a vast array of regulators, hoses, and torch handles found in fabrication shops.

Safety and precision are paramount in gas welding equipment. The Miller NE135B is machined with tight tolerances to ensure leak-free connections when paired with compatible B-size nuts and nipples. Unlike fuel gas fittings which utilize left-hand threads to prevent cross-connection, this oxygen manifold strictly employs right-hand threads, adhering to CGA safety standards to prevent accidental hookup to incompatible gas lines. The Y-shape design provides a streamlined flow path, minimizing pressure drop across the junction and maintaining consistent flow rates to both connected hoses. This is particularly critical in applications where stable flame characteristics are necessary for quality welds or clean cuts.

This manifold is a passive device, meaning it does not contain internal valves or flow controls; it simply divides the incoming stream. It is ideal for scenarios where two operators need to work from a single large cylinder or bulk supply drop, or for complex heating setups requiring multiple flame sources. Users should always ensure that the total flow requirement of both attached devices does not exceed the capacity of the upstream regulator. With its robust build and reliable Miller engineering, the NE135B is a dependable solution for managing oxygen lines in any professional metalworking environment.
