1″ x 3/4″ PEX manifolds (do they exist?)

Does anyone know if a manifold with 1″ input & 3/4″ branch lines?
I’m using PEX to plumb my house, but rather than doing complete home runs for everything, I’d rather run 3/4″ to each room & split to each fixture from there with smaller 3/4″ x 1/2″ manifolds.
Does anyone know if such an animal exists? My plumbing supplier is checking for me, but isn’t sure if there is one.
Worst case scenario, I’d sweat something together using T’s & ball valves, but something prefabbed would make things easier.

Hey Soultrain,

They have 72" cut-to-size headers with 1" mainline and 3/4" branch sweat connections... you'd have to sweat a CU-PEX adapter of some sort on the branches.
They have manifolds with PEX (crimp) branches, but only in 1/2" PEX size.
