Hayden 3-Way 90-Degree Elbo...

Product details
Part 765515W is Hayden's three-port elbow, built to solve a specific installation problem: a wall inlet that needs to branch off a central vacuum run exactly where that run is already turning a full 90-degree corner. Instead of the usual two ports, this fitting has three, letting a branch and a 90-degree turn happen at the same point in the pipe.
That situation comes up constantly in real houses, where a run threading through a tight stud bay or around a floor joist has no straight section available to tap a branch from. Building the same connection out of a standard elbow plus a separate tee adds two extra joints and two extra turns to the run, and every one of those is another place for a seal to fail or debris to snag over the years. One three-way fitting replaces all of that.
This part is listed against the Hayden 0662 fitting family and cements into standard central vacuum tubing the same as any other fitting in the system. The step worth slowing down for is confirming which of the three ports carries the branch and which continues the main run, since getting that backwards means opening drywall later to fix a corner that only reveals its mistake once the inlet is wired in.
Dry-fit the whole junction before any cement touches the pipe, tracing each of the three directions back to where it is supposed to land. A three-way fitting gives more ways to get the orientation wrong than a simple elbow does, so the extra minute spent checking pays for itself compared with cutting the pipe open after the wall has already gone back up.
