Stainless Steel BSP Threaded Union
A stainless steel union is a threaded fitting which allows the pipe work to be separated and reconnected without any horizontal movement in the pipe. It can be a standalone pipe fitting connecting two pieces of pipe, or an integral part of another fitting (such as a ball valve) which allows it to be separated. Threaded unions have male threads on both ends of the fitting which screw into female threads on either end of the connecting pipe.
They provide an easy way to connect two pipes without having to turn the pipes. Since they are made from three parts they have extra functionality compared to that of a regular coupling. This makes them very convenient to connect two Male NPT ends when turning each part is limited.
