1 1/2 BSP Thread – characteristics and application

Characteristics:

The 1 1/2 BSP (British Standard Pipe) thread is a popular type of inch pipe thread, widely used in power hydraulics, pneumatics and industrial installations. It is a parallel thread (BSPP – British Standard Pipe Parallel), compliant with the ISO 228 standard. It is characterized by a precise fit and high tightness of connections thanks to the use of appropriate sealing rings or washers. The outer dimension of the 1 1/2 BSP thread is approximately 47.8 mm, and the number of threads per inch is 11.

Application:

• High-pressure hydraulic systems, including pressure line connections.

• Pneumatic and industrial installations.

• Connections in lubrication, cooling and technical media transfer systems.

• Industrial fittings – valves, directional control valves, filters and quick couplers.

• Connections in the agricultural, construction and marine industries.

BSP threads, including the 1 1/2 size, ensure durability, reliability and easy installation in various types of systems. Thanks to precise manufacturing and high resistance to pressure and corrosion, they are widely used in professional hydraulic systems offered by Hydron.
