Midland Industries 7032-04-02 Straight Nptf Bspp Adapter

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 7032-04-02 is a straight hydraulic adapter that connects a 1/4-inch Male NPTF thread to a 1/8-inch Male BSPP thread. Built from steel, this fitting is designed for use in hydraulic and fluid power systems where two different thread standards must be joined inline. The NPTF side carries a 1/4-18 thread and the BSPP side carries a 1/8-28 thread. At 1.2 inches in length and 0.06 pounds, it is a compact, durable component suited for tight hydraulic circuit assemblies. Licensed plumbers, hydraulic system technicians, and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting.

This adapter is used in hydraulic systems, fluid power circuits, and industrial piping applications where NPTF and BSPP connections must interface. Its straight configuration makes it appropriate for inline transitions between components such as valves, manifolds, cylinders, and pumps. It belongs to the Midland 7032 Series, which covers male pipe to male BSPP adapter configurations in steel construction. This fitting is commonly found in both mobile and stationary hydraulic equipment where mixed thread standards are present.

Key Features

• Straight inline configuration for direct NPTF-to-BSPP thread transitions
• 1/4-18 NPTF thread on side one for leak-resistant tapered pipe connections
• 1/8-28 BSPP thread on side two for compatibility with British Standard Parallel Pipe fittings
• Steel construction for durability in hydraulic and fluid power environments
• Compact at 1.2 inches in length, suitable for space-constrained installations
• Part of the 7032 Series Male Pipe to MBSPP adapter family

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install fitting for hydraulic and fluid power systems requiring a 1/4-inch Male NPTF to 1/8-inch Male BSPP inline straight adapter connection.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or hydraulic system technicians. Depressurize and drain the hydraulic circuit fully before removing or installing any fittings. NPTF threads are tapered and self-sealing by design, but sealant tape or thread compound may be used per system requirements and applicable fluid power codes. Do not overtighten steel fittings; follow standard hydraulic assembly torque practices for the fitting size.
