Push To Connect BSPT (R) Thread Fittings

Push-In Pneumatic Fittings with BSPT / R Threads

BSPT push-to-connect fittings combine a tapered R-thread connection with a one-touch pneumatic tube port. They are used to connect polyurethane, nylon and other compatible tubing to valves, cylinders and associated pneumatic equipment.

The design supports compact machine plumbing and makes tubing easier to disconnect during service or system modification. Correct BSPT thread size and tube outside diameter are important for a reliable installation.

Operating Specifications

• Fluid medium: Air
• Working pressure: 0–150 psi(g) / 10 bar(g)
• Proof pressure: 450 psi(g) / 30 bar(g)
• Vacuum duty: 29.5 inHg / 14 mbar(a)
• Working temperature: 32–140°F / 0–60°C

Why Use BSPT / R Thread Fittings?

• BSPT fittings are useful on pneumatic equipment that uses tapered R-thread ports. The push-in end reduces installation time compared with traditional tube compression connections.
• They are commonly used on factory automation machinery, valve islands, air cylinders and compact pneumatic assemblies.

Common Applications

• Industrial automation machinery
• Pneumatic cylinders and actuators
• Directional control valves and manifolds
• Packaging and assembly equipment
• Robotics and end-of-arm equipment
• General factory compressed air circuits
