Match the fitting to the pipe or hose outside diameter, thread type, connection method, working pressure, temperature and fluid being carried. Materials such as brass, stainless steel, aluminium, plastic and rubber have different compatibility limits. Check the product dimensions carefully because fittings that appear similar may use different thread standards or sealing methods.
BSP and NPT are different thread systems and should not be treated as interchangeable. They have different thread forms and, in some sizes, different pitches. A connection may appear to start but can leak or damage the threads when tightened. Identify whether the component uses BSPP, BSPT or NPT and use the correct matching fitting and seal.
The correct sealing method depends on the connection. Tapered pipe threads may require a compatible thread tape or sealant, while parallel threads often seal with an O-ring, bonded washer, gasket or sealing face. Do not apply tape to flare, compression or O-ring connections unless the product instructions require it, as excess sealant can enter the system.
Ensure threads and sealing faces are clean, undamaged and correctly aligned. Use the specified seal, tighten to an appropriate level and support the pipework so fittings are not carrying excessive weight or vibration. Over-tightening can crack housings, distort seals or strip threads, while under-tightening can allow movement and leakage.
No. Suitability depends on the component material, seals, pressure and any required approvals. A fitting intended for irrigation or general transfer may not be certified for potable water, gas, petrol or aggressive chemicals. Confirm the intended service on the individual product page and comply with applicable plumbing and installation requirements.
