Description
Product Overview
The Anglost 1/2 x 1/4 inch BSPT SS hex reducing nipple (316) is a male-to-male threaded reducer designed to join two different BSPT female threaded connections. It is suitable for adapting pipework, valves, gauges and equipment ports where a corrosion-resistant stainless steel fitting is required. The hex body makes tightening and removal quicker using standard spanners.
Key Features
- 316 stainless steel construction – helps resist corrosion and provides long service life in demanding environments.
- 1/2 inch to 1/4 inch BSPT reduction – allows you to adapt mismatched threaded ports without changing surrounding pipework.
- Hex body design – easier to grip and tighten with a spanner for a secure, leak-reducing fit.
- Male BSPT threads both ends – ideal for connecting into two female BSPT threaded components such as fittings, manifolds or instrument ports.
Use Case / Application
Designed for threaded pipe and equipment connections, this stainless steel reducing hex nipple is commonly used in plumbing and industrial pipework where BSPT tapered threads are specified. Typical uses include adapting connections on pumps, pressure gauges, valves, filtration housings and compressed air or water lines. Suitable for workshops, plant rooms, utility areas and other environments where durability and corrosion resistance matter.
Problem → Solution
Ideal for reducing from a 1/2 inch BSPT connection to a 1/4 inch BSPT port when you need a strong, corrosion-resistant threaded adapter that installs neatly with a spanner.
