Description
Overview:
The Male Adaptor Tapered Threaded Steel 1/4" BSP is a robust pipe fitting used to join threaded components in plumbing and fluid systems. Manufactured from high-quality steel, it has a tapered male thread that tightens to form a dependable, leak-resistant seal. A corrosion-resistant treatment helps the adaptor withstand harsh environments, while the thread surface is Teflon-coated for smoother engagement and added durability. The compact hex-body design aids tightening with a spanner, and the 55mm length with 14mm width suits tight installations. This adaptor is widely used across domestic and commercial plumbing, plant rooms, manifolds and machinery hook-ups where a secure threaded connection is required. The 1/4" BSP size (approximately 6.35mm) is common on small-bore pipework, valves, gauges and control equipment.
Key Features:
- Steel construction for strength and long service life
- Tapered 1/4" BSP male thread (approx. 6.35mm) for a tight, leak-resistant seal
- Corrosion-resistant treatment to protect against rust in damp or outdoor settings
- Teflon-coated thread for smooth assembly and reduced galling
- Hex body for easy tightening with standard spanners
- Compact form: 55mm length and 14mm width for use in confined spaces
- Reliable under repeated assembly and disassembly
- Suitable for residential and commercial plumbing systems
- Compatible with common BSP-threaded valves, gauges, tees and manifolds
- Clean, precise threads to help minimise sealing tape or compound usage
Typical Applications:
Joining small-bore pipework and fittings on water supply lines, plant room manifolds, pump connections, pressure gauges and isolation valves. Useful for linking hoses or rigid pipes to equipment in kitchens, utility rooms, workshops and service areas. Often selected for general plumbing tasks where a 1/4" BSP tapered male connection is required to achieve a secure, leak-resistant joint.
