It's easy to make your own Ys for a 4-stud torch. All you need to make your own:

two short lengths of fuel hose (one for the front fuel stud, one for the back)
two short lengths of oxygen hose (one for the front oxygen stud, one for the back)
you can just cut these short lengths for your existing lines, if you want to.

two nylon 1/4" barbed T or Y fittings (available at the hardware store)

eight hose clamps - you can use the screw worm style, or you can use the kind that you crimp on. Fire marshalls like the crimps better than the screw clamps.


If you want to use the centerfire (the Lynx part) on a concentrator and the outerfire on tanked oxygen, Y the fuel posts together, but leave the oxygen posts unwyed.
