About Fire-Fighting Hose Threads

High-Pressure Aluminum Threaded Pipe Fittings

Also known as Pressure Class 3000 fittings, these have the highest pressure rating of all the aluminum pipe fittings we offer. They are lightweight with good corrosion resistance.

Union connectors separate into three pieces so you can access your line without unthreading pipe connections.

Threaded female x butt weld straight adapters are also known as half couplings.

Female x male 90° elbow adapters are also known as street elbows.

Thick-Wall Aluminum Threaded Pipe Nipples and Pipe

Also known as Schedule 80, this pipe has extra-thick walls to handle high-pressure applications. It is seamless so it has a smooth interior for unrestricted flow. Pipe is aluminum, which is lightweight with good corrosion resistance.

Fully threaded pipe is also known as a close nipple; it is threaded on each end to the center.

Thick-Wall Butt-Weld Aluminum Unthreaded Pipe Fittings

Thick walls give these Schedule 80 fittings excellent strength. They have beveled ends that, when flush to pipe, create a trough for a strong weld that permits maximum flow. Fittings are aluminum, which is lightweight with good corrosion resistance.

Rocker-Lug Fire-Fighting Hose Fittings

The rocker lugs on these fittings allow for easy gripping, so you can quickly connect to fire hydrants and washdown equipment. Tighten with a hook-style spanner wrench (sold separately).

Fittings that swivel until tightened rotate to help prevent kinking during installation.

NH/NST (National Hose/National Standard) threads are only compatible with other NH/NST threads. Male NPSH (National Pipe Straight Hose) threads are compatible with female NPSH threads. Female NPSH threads are compatible with male NPSH, NPT, NPTF, and NPSM threads.

Aluminum fittings are more lightweight than brass fittings. They have good abrasion and corrosion resistance.
