Midland Industries 29107 Brass Pipe Adapter Mnpt X Bspt

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 29107 is a brass pipe adapter designed to connect a 1/2-inch male NPT (MNPT) thread to a 1/2-inch female British Standard Pipe Taper (BSPT) thread. This fitting bridges two common thread standards found in plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping systems. Machined from brass, it provides reliable corrosion resistance and thread integrity in both low-pressure and moderate-pressure fluid or gas lines. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this type of adapter when transitioning between North American NPT-threaded equipment and components manufactured to British or international BSPT standards.

This adapter is suited for residential and light commercial applications where NPT-threaded pipe or equipment must interface with BSPT-threaded fittings or imported components. Typical install scenarios include connecting BSPT-threaded gauges, valves, or imported equipment to standard NPT supply lines. The compact profile and standard 1/2-inch sizing make it a common solution in gas, water, and hydraulic service lines where thread standard mismatches occur.

Key Features

• Bridges 1/2-inch MNPT and 1/2-inch Female BSPT thread standards in a single fitting
• Brass construction offers corrosion resistance and durability in fluid and gas service
• Compact dimensions: 1.3 inches length, 0.95 inches height, 1.1 inches width
• Lightweight at 0.135 pounds for easy handling during installation
• 08 dash size designation for straightforward catalog and specification reference

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style adapter for systems requiring a transition between 1/2-inch MNPT and 1/2-inch female BSPT threaded connections in brass fitting applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter following applicable IPC or IFGC guidelines depending on the service media. Shut off and depressurize the line completely before removing any existing fittings or installing this adapter. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the MNPT threads; note that NPT and BSPT tapers are similar but not fully interchangeable, so verify thread engagement and pressure-test after installation. Do not overtighten brass fittings, as the material is susceptible to thread damage under excessive torque.
