Description
Overview:
The Malleable Equal Hex Nipple 3/4" x 3/4" M/M BSP is a compact, heavy‐duty connector for joining two threaded BSP female ports in pipework and machinery. Made from durable malleable cast iron for strength and shock resistance, it features equal 3/4 inch (approx. 19 mm) male-to-male BSP threads and a hex body for easy tightening with a spanner. Supplied under Manufacturer Part Number 484 034, it provides a secure, reliable link in water, air, and light oil systems when installed with suitable sealant. Commonly used across plumbing, plant, agricultural equipment, compressors, pumps, valves, and workshop setups, it helps extend or adapt pipe runs and component ports where a compact, rigid male connection is required.
Key Features:
- Equal 3/4" (approx. 19 mm) BSP male-to-male threads for straightforward in-line connections
- Hexagonal body for firm spanner grip and controlled torque during installation
- Malleable cast iron construction for high mechanical strength and long service life
- Compact form factor to save space in tight manifolds and enclosures
- Suitable for water, air and non-corrosive fluids when matched to system ratings
- Clean, parallel alignment for stable pipe runs and accessories
- Compatible with standard BSP female fittings used in plumbing and machinery
- Helps achieve leak-tight joints when used with PTFE tape or appropriate thread sealant
- Robust threads to withstand repeated assembly and maintenance cycles
- Versatile for site, workshop, and plantroom use
Typical Applications:
Used to couple two BSP female threads on pumps, valves, filters, pressure regulators, air receivers, hydraulic reservoirs (low pressure), water supply lines, and manifold blocks. Ideal for joining sections of steel or brass pipework, extending component ports, or connecting gauges and accessories in building services, construction plant, farm equipment, and workshop air systems.
