Overview
“Y” tube is designed to be used with the Homebuilders cabin heat box to make warm air available to 2 or more locations in the aircraft. Constructed of seamless 2024T6 tube, it weighs only 2 oz. These tubes are expanded to 2″ I.D. on the inlet end to slip over and clamp to the 2″ O.D. tube of the cabin heat box. Due to the very light weight, “Y” tubes can be installed in scat tubing as well as attaching directly to cabin heat boxes. One stainless steel clamp is included with “Y” tube. Due to the light weight of only 1.7 oz., the non-expanded Y-tube can be placed anywhere in a run of tubing to give more options for heating additional areas of the aircraft.

This is a DL-010 “Y” Tube, modified with a shut-off valve in the straight run tube. The shut-off valve enables the builder to divert the flow of air from the straight tube and direct all or part of the air flow to the angled tube. Furnished with one stainless steel hose clamp. Weight is 2.9 ounces. |
| Q & A | Q: What is the difference between expanded and non-expanded? The difference between the two is that part # 08-04100 has an expanded end on the inlet side which allows it to fit over a 2" OD diameter tube. |
