Description
This plain female x male threaded adaptor is designed to join an ABS solvent weld pipe or fitting to a BSP threaded component, providing a simple and secure transition between the two connection types. The female plain socket is bonded using ABS solvent cement and cleaner to create a reliable permanent joint, while the male BSP thread allows for a detachable mechanical connection to valves, gauges or other equipment. Manufactured from high quality ABS, the adaptor offers excellent rigidity, impact resistance and long term durability across a wide operating temperature range. Its balanced design makes it suitable for a wide range of process and industrial applications where plastic and threaded components meet.
