Description
Overview:
The Malleable Male-Female Reducing Hex Bush 3/4"m x 1/2"f BSP is a compact pipe fitting used to join different thread sizes in plumbing, air, and general industrial pipework. Made from durable malleable iron with a corrosion-resistant galvanised finish, it provides a strong, reliable connection while remaining easy to handle during installation. The 3/4 inch (19.05 mm) male BSP thread reduces to a 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) female BSP thread, allowing you to adapt outlets or components without re-piping. Its hexagonal body accepts a spanner for positive tightening in tight spaces. Commonly used on pumps, compressors, pressure washers, and workshop lines, it suits both trade and DIY tasks where a neat, robust reducer is required. MPN: 383 312.
Key Features:
- 3/4" (19.05 mm) male BSP to 1/2" (12.7 mm) female BSP for quick size reduction
- Malleable iron body for strength and impact resistance
- Galvanised finish to help resist rust in damp or outdoor environments
- Hexagonal head for easy tightening with a spanner or adjustable wrench
- Precise BSP threading for a dependable, leak-tight fit when used with PTFE tape or sealant
- Compact form factor for use in confined assemblies and manifolds
- Suitable for water, air and general-purpose fluids in domestic and industrial systems
- Helps avoid rework by adapting existing pipework to new equipment or fittings
- Widely compatible with standard BSP pipe, valves, couplers, and hose tails
- Clean internal bore to support steady flow with minimal turbulence
Typical Applications:
Adapting outlets on pumps, tanks, and filters; connecting tools to airline manifolds; pressure washer and irrigation setups; workshop and site plumbing modifications; integrating gauges, valves, and regulators; creating reducers in plant maintenance, building services, and agricultural systems where BSP threads are standard.
