Description
Overview:
The Weldable Malleable Iron Female Socket 1" BSP is a durable coupling for joining male-threaded pipework in plumbing and industrial systems. Made from galvanised malleable iron, it offers good corrosion resistance and solid mechanical strength for everyday site and workshop use. The socket features a 1 inch (25.4 mm) BSP female thread, giving straightforward compatibility with standard BSP pipe and fittings. At 41 mm in length, it provides a compact, easy-to-position join in tight runs or confined installations. Its weldable design supports secure attachment to compatible steel fabrications where required, helping create robust branch points or fixed connection points. Suitable for water, air and general service pipework on plant rooms, irrigation setups, workshop airlines and machinery support systems. Manufacturer Part Number: 181 100.
Key Features:
- Galvanised malleable iron body for strength and corrosion resistance
- Weldable design to aid permanent fixing in fabricated assemblies
- 1" BSP female thread (25.4 mm) for standard UK/ISO BSP systems
- Compact 41 mm length for use in restricted spaces
- Reliable threaded coupling to join two male-threaded components
- Compatible with common steel and galvanised BSP pipe and fittings
- Smooth internal thread for easier starting and tightening
- Practical choice for tradespeople and DIY users seeking a robust connector
- MPN: 181 100 for easy identification and reordering
- Works with appropriate thread sealant (e.g. PTFE tape or compound) for leak-tight joints
Typical Applications:
Used to connect sections of BSP-threaded pipe in plumbing, irrigation, compressed air lines, and general industrial piping. Helpful for repairs, alterations, and new installations on site services, plant maintenance, workshop airlines, pump and tank connections, and machinery support infrastructure where a compact, weldable female coupling is required.
