The wyed lines are specifically designed to facilitate the connection of two smaller-diameter attack lines to a larger-diameter supply line, allowing for increased versatility and flow in fire suppression operations. This setup is particularly useful in scenarios where rapid deployment of multiple lines is needed, providing firefighters with the capability to manage different areas of a fire scene or support firefighters in various tasks.

When coupled with a larger-diameter line, wyed lines maintain high flow rates and enhance efficiency in firefighting efforts, thereby allowing for a more effective response to various fire conditions. The flexibility of this connection makes it a preferred choice for firefighting teams who need to adapt quickly to changing circumstances at the fireground. Other line loads, while effective in their own right, do not share the same coupling functionality with larger-diameter lines.
