BSPT (British Standard Pipe Taper) male fitting is commonly used in hydraulic and plumbing systems for its reliable and leak-proof connections.
Thread Design: BSPT threads are tapered, meaning the diameter decreases along the length of the thread. This taper helps create a tight seal when the male fitting is screwed into a female BSPT fitting.
Thread Angle: The thread angle for BSPT is 55 degrees, which differs from the 60-degree angle used in NPT (National Pipe Taper) threads.
Applications: These fittings are widely used in various industries, including oil and gas, manufacturing, and shipbuilding.
