Question by: Bonnie K on Feb 7, 2026, 10:02 AM
what's the thread type on the male end of this connector? asking cause i need something that'll play nice with a BSPP port and want to make sure before i order
Answer by: Customer Support on Feb 8, 2026, 8:18 PM
The male end is BSPP, so it'll connect directly to any standard BSPP port without adapters or modifications. The female side is a compression-style tube fitting sized at half an inch, while the male BSPP end measures 3/8 inch. Hex size on the fitting comes in at 0.93 inches, which gives you a solid wrench flat to torque it down properly.

got a nylon tube line i need to tie into a BSPP port, is this the right kind of straight adapter for that?
Answer by: Customer Support on Sep 4, 2025, 2:15 PM
Built for exactly that connection, it is a line, hose, or tube to BSPP male straight adapter made from nylon. One end is for a line, hose, or tube connection and the other end is a BSPP male thread.

Will this Eaton connector work alright with different kinds of hoses, or is it picky?
Answer by: Customer Support on Jun 7, 2025, 12:02 PM
This connector works with line, hose, or tube connections on one end, and BSPP (British Standard Parallel Pipe) on the other, making it a versatile adapter.
