hydraulic tee

[mroldstyle]

I'm running line from my rear remote forward to fel/garpple, what I would like to do is take the QC off the rear remote and insert a tee, allowing me to replace QC on one leg and hoses going forward to grapple onto the side leg of tee. This way I would still have the QC available for use out the back. I realize I would need to disconect the grapple to get flow to the rear, but figure it would be easier to dc at the bucket than behind the tractor. Does this sound reasonable? Also would I need a hydraulic specific tee, or could I get away with using black pipe or galvanized. TSC doesn't have hydraulic tees, so I would need to get it online.
Thanks.

Only use fittings specified for hydraulics. Black pipe and Galvanized pipe is not acceptable.

Your plan is fine-but use real real fittings from a place like Discount Hydraulic Hose.com . You are dealing with 3000+ PSI here...no place for cheapo fittings.

I'll third the motion........... gangreen does NOT look good on you. Don't use pipe designed for 150 PSI in a 2500 PSI hydraulic system.
