Title: NPT -> BSP brass fittings
Post by: ColmR on July 17, 2014, 11:35:42 AM
Hi all,

Anyone know of anywhere in Dublin that I could go to and buy a 1/4" NPT Male to 1/4" BSP Female adaptor?
Will be to convert a US ppropane regulator to use with Irish tank. I've seen some on eBay, but they ain't cheap and instant gratification and all that...

Thanks,
Colm

I bought a NPT to BSP adaptor at a hydraulic's fitting supplier in Park West Ind est a while back. Cannot remember the name but thats the kind of supplier you need. :)

Fair play. Do they sell to the public?

So went down to that hydraulics place and they were very helpful, but the Hydraulic NPT threads seemed very different to what I needed for Gas fittings. :(

Anyone any other ideas? I rang a couple of plumbing places and they wouldn't have fittings as small as 1/4".

Thanks,
