    About Pipe and Fittings
    industrial info icon

    Measure your pipe and fittings to identify their pipe size, thread size, schedule, and thread type. Then, find compatible components.

    Universal-Thread Medium-Pressure Brass and Bronze Threaded Pipe Fittings

    When you're unsure of the exact thread type you need, these fittings have universal threads that are compatible with the most common ones (NPT, NPTF, BSPP, BSPT). Made of nickel-plated brass, they resist corrosion better than plain brass fittings. A reusable Buna-N O-ring protects against leaks. Connectors, adapters, and reducers all have a hex-shaped body, so you can tighten them with a wrench.
