No industry standard in end tees?

[eagle lake sugar]

I was surprised when replacing 1000 drops this season to find that the red end tees I bought are designed to loop around the right side of the tree. The brand I used previously were red and were made to loop around the left side and blue or green went around the right. There's not an industry standard apparently, not a real big deal but......

I have seen both left and right end Tees. I assume these are the blind tees? Yes all custom plastic. from each suppliers. Because each one is better than the other!:)
Pick fittings that work for you and your system. I like to uses the same brand Tee and spout, so they plug together during the off season. Some end tees from CDL did not have cups on the tee.
Good luck hope your season is good.
Keep boiling!
