Key Features & Benefits
- Male one end, female the other — adapts between a male outlet and a female fitting in a single piece.
- Reduces or enlarges the thread size — bridges two different BSP sizes without re-plumbing the line.
- Tapered BSP threads — the BSPT taper helps the joint seal under air pressure when made up with thread tape or sealant.
- Solid brass hex body — corrosion resistant and hard wearing, with spanner flats for a firm make-up.
When to Use This Adaptor
Reach for part 0172-0806 when you have a 3/8″ male outlet but need a 1/2″ female connection (or vice versa) — the M&F adaptor changes both size and gender in one fitting. Wrap the male thread with PTFE tape before fitting for a clean, leak-free seal.
