Female 2'' BSP - Male 1''1/2 BSP Fitting

Female 2" BSP - Male 1"1/2 BSP Fitting (Reference: 100195) from CPP brand represents the ideal solution for adapting diameters in your hydraulic installations on 1000-liter tanks. This professional adapter in glass fiber-reinforced polypropylene guarantees a reliable and watertight connection between different BSP thread diameters, meeting the requirements of both professionals and individuals.

Professional applications and uses

This adapter fitting finds its place in numerous industrial and domestic configurations. It is particularly suitable for 1000-liter IBC tanks equipped with 2" BSP valves requiring reduction to a 1"1/2 BSP connection. Agricultural sectors use it to connect irrigation systems, transfer pumps or spraying equipment.

In industry, it facilitates the connection of dosing, mixing or transfer equipment for non-aggressive chemicals. Individuals appreciate it for their rainwater harvesting installations, automated watering systems or garden pump connections. Its versatility makes it an essential element for any installation requiring reliable diameter adaptation.

Technical specifications and materials

Made from glass fiber-reinforced polypropylene, this fitting benefits from superior mechanical resistance compared to standard polypropylenes. Glass fiber reinforcement considerably improves resistance to mechanical stress, temperature variations and pressure. The maximum operating pressure of 8 bar allows safe use on most domestic and semi-industrial installations.

The BSP (British Standard Pipe) gas thread ensures optimal sealing thanks to its conical profile. The 2" BSP female inlet fits perfectly to standard IBC tank valves, while the 1"1/2 BSP male outlet allows connection of a wide range of accessories and piping. The weight of 120 grams testifies to the robustness of construction while remaining easily manageable.

Installation and practical use

Installing this adapter requires no specific tools. Manual screwing onto your tank's 2" BSP valve must be done carefully to avoid over-tightening. Using teflon tape or sealing paste on the threads is recommended to guarantee perfect sealing, particularly important on pressurized installations.

Before commissioning, check for excessive mechanical stress on the fitting. Connected piping must be supported independently to avoid tensile or bending forces on the adapter. Maintenance is limited to periodic cleaning and checking connection tightness. When dismantling, systematically replace sealing gaskets.

Expert advice and product synergies

To optimize your installation, combine this adapter with professional quality ball valves available in our range. Camlock or Guillemin fittings can complete your installation for quick and secure connections. Also consider elbows and tee fittings to direct your piping according to your specific needs.

A common mistake is over-tightening plastic fittings, risking damage to the threads. Always use moderate tightening torque and complete sealing with suitable products. For permanent installations, provide easy access for maintenance. In winter, drain circuits not protected from frost to preserve the integrity of your polypropylene fittings.
