1/4 in (8 mm) Threaded Half Coupling, BSPT, Black | PCH08B
Available
This AAP threaded half coupling is a forged carbon steel fitting with BSPT thread and a black finish. It is supplied in 11 sizes, 1/4 in (8 mm) to 4 in (100 mm).
A half coupling is a short fitting with an internal thread at one end. It is normally welded to a pipe or vessel at the other end to make a threaded outlet. AAP does not describe the end detail, so confirm it with AIMS before you order. A is its length and B is its outside diameter, as lettered on the AAP drawing.
AAP rates its threaded high pressure fittings at 3000 lb (manufacturer-stated). AAP's pressure and temperature chart for screwed and socket welding fittings lists 3000 lb fittings at 3000 psi (about 20.7 MPa) from -20 to 100 degrees F (-29 to 38 degrees C), reducing to 355 psi (about 2.4 MPa) at 1000 degrees F (538 degrees C). AAP lists ASTM A105 carbon steel forgings among the standards for the range.

Selecting the right option
Choose the size and thread to match your pipework (NPT or BSPT cannot be mixed), and check the thread gender at each end against the fitting it joins.
