I am wanting to have two 1/2" ball valves coming out of one port on the HLT, MT, and BK. So far the only thing I found was a diverter not a shut off. Any ideas?
 
Not sure exactly what you are trying to do... If you want to divert to 2 differnt places via those valves, couldn't you use a tee off the kettle to 2 close nipples/valves? If you will have a temp probe there you could use a cross.

A drawing with what you want to do would help.

Yeah, add a shutoff to the diverter.


Seriously though, just get a wye splitter and put some shutoffs down-line of it. Now you've got one master shut off (the ball valve), and 2 secondary shutoffs (one for each leg).
 
Three ball valves and a wye all hanging off a thin kettle wall might be pushing things, when a single L-type 3-way ball valve would do the job...

Cheers!
 
I went with a single ball valve on each but used quick disconnect fittings. All of the male ends on the stationary equipment. And female on all of the hoses. Thanks for the help.
