Description
This PVCu hexagon threaded nipple is designed to connect two BSP female threaded components while providing a convenient hexagonal section for spanner tightening. The hex body allows easier installation and removal compared with plain nipples, particularly in tighter spaces or where secure torque application is required.
Manufactured from corrosion-resistant PVCu, the fitting delivers reliable long-term performance in water systems, industrial installations, and general engineering applications. Precisely formed BSP threads ensure secure mechanical joints, while the straight bore supports efficient flow through the connection.
