Female M80x3 - female 2 inch BSP Fitting

The Female M80x3 to BSP 2 inch CPP Fitting (Reference: 101014) represents the ideal solution for all your conversion needs between M80x3 and BSP 2 inch threading standards. This high-quality fitting, manufactured by CPP, guarantees a perfect adaptation between these two connection systems commonly used in industry and domestic applications.

Applications and practical advantages

This conversion fitting finds its usefulness in many practical situations. It notably allows connecting valves equipped with M80x3 threading to pipes or accessories featuring a BSP 2 inch connection. This versatility makes it an essential element for industrial sector professionals, installers and individuals managing liquid storage systems.

IBC 1000 liter tanks, widely used in industry, frequently use valves with M80x3 threading. This fitting allows adapting these installations to BSP standards, thus facilitating integration into existing circuits. Applications include connecting pumps, filters, additional valves or distribution systems.

Construction and quality materials

Manufactured in high-quality polypropylene, this fitting offers excellent chemical and mechanical resistance. Polypropylene has the advantage of being compatible with a wide range of liquids, including water, oils, many chemicals and food solutions. Its molecular structure gives the fitting exceptional durability against temperature variations and mechanical stress.

The female-female design allows installation without modification of the existing installation. The threads are precisely machined to guarantee a perfect and sealed assembly. The M80x3 threading features a nominal diameter of 80 mm with a 3 mm thread pitch, while the BSP 2 inch side complies with the British standard for gas fittings, ensuring universal compatibility.

Installation and commissioning

Installing this conversion fitting requires some precautions to guarantee perfect sealing. Before assembly, check that the M80x3 valve threads and the element to be connected on the BSP side are clean and free of debris. Using a suitable sealant such as teflon or specialized sealant is recommended on the threads.

Tightening must be progressive and uniform to avoid excessive stress on the polypropylene. Hand tightening followed by a quarter to half turn with an appropriate tool is generally sufficient. Avoid over-tightening which could damage the threads or cause cracks. After installation, perform a progressive leak test by gradually increasing pressure.

For maintenance, periodically check the condition of seals and tightening quality. Polypropylene requires little maintenance but remains sensitive to UV with prolonged sun exposure. In this case, provide suitable protection or preventive replacement.
