Galvanised BSP Nipple
A galvanized BSP threaded nipple is a type of pipe fitting that is:
- Galvanized: Coated with a layer of zinc to provide corrosion resistance and durability.
- Threaded: Features threaded connections on both ends conforming to the BSP standard, allowing for easy connection and disconnection of pipes or tubes.
- Nipple: A short, cylindrical pipe fitting used to connect two pipes or tubes together.
Key Features
- Made from malleable iron
- Coated with a layer of zinc through the galvanization process
- Features threaded connections conforming to standard thread specifications (e.g., NPT, BSP)
- Available in various sizes, threads, and lengths
- Suitable for use in piping systems for water, gas, oil, and other fluids
Purpose
- Connects two pipes or tubes together
- Extends the length of a pipe or tube
- Changes the direction of a pipe or tube
- Provides a leak-tight seal to prevent fluid leaks
