Description
Overview:
The Brass 1/2" Male BSP Thread to 1/2" Hose Tail Fitting is a compact connector for joining a 1/2" (12.7 mm) internal diameter hose to a 1/2" (12.7 mm) BSP threaded port. Made from durable, corrosion‐resistant brass with a hexagon body for easy spanner tightening, it provides a secure, leak‐resistant transition between flexible hose and rigid pipework. Supplied as a single-piece machined fitting, it suits plumbing, irrigation, and general fluid transfer on site and in workshops. Typical uses include linking hoses to water pumps, pressure washer feeds, tanks, taps, and manifolds on construction and garden machinery. Part number: 545 012. For best results, use with a suitable hose clip on the tail and PTFE tape or thread sealant on the male BSP thread.
Key Features:
- High-quality brass construction for strength and corrosion resistance in wet and outdoor environments
- 1/2" Male BSP thread for standardised connection to valves, taps, pumps, and pipe fittings (equivalent to 12.7 mm nominal)
- 1/2" (12.7 mm) hose tail suits common flexible hose sizes for water and general fluid handling
- Hexagon body allows firm grip with a spanner for straightforward installation and removal
- Smooth, barbed tail profile helps the hose seat securely when clamped
- Compact form factor fits tight spaces in plant, workshop, and garden setups
- Reliable choice for temporary or permanent connections in plumbing and irrigation tasks
- Compatible with typical worm-drive hose clips for a secure hose-to-tail joint (clip not included)
- Suitable for use with cold water and general-purpose fluids in low to moderate pressure systems
- Part number 545 012 for easy identification and reordering
Typical Applications:
Connecting hoses to threaded outlets on water pumps, pressure washer intakes, garden taps, IBC/tank adaptors, site bowsers, and distribution manifolds. Useful for irrigation lines, temporary site water supplies, equipment washdown feeds, and general workshop plumbing where a flexible hose needs to interface with 1/2" (12.7 mm) BSP threaded fittings.
