Suitable for many applicable installations they have parallel female threads and taper male threads. Originally manufactured under the old BS 1740 specification they are now manufactured to ISO 4144:2003 and threaded in accordance to ISO 7-1. We can provide the relevant certification for stainless steel pipe fittings from our partners at Genebre; supporting the use at 20 bar and the table below provides the temperature restrictions associated with higher pressures.
