Hi,
Trying to make a sight tube and I don’t know what to call this fitting. Does anyone know or have something similar? Thanks in advance.

It is a shut-off valve for a sight indicator tube.

Thank you for the response. I am more refering to what looks like a threaded adapter to the sight tube coming out of the ball valve. I kinda looks like a separate part, but it not be. It seems to just be a press fit for the sight tube. I couldnt find that on McMaster Carr's site.

I think the part you're talking about is a compression tee or elbow or valve.
