Norgren 101251018 Push-to-connect Tube Adapter 1/8 Bspt

Product Description

The NORGREN 101251018 is a straight push-to-connect tube fitting adapter designed to connect tubing to a male BSPT threaded port in a single inline configuration. Constructed from nickel-plated brass, it handles a maximum working pressure of 260 psi and operates across a temperature range of 0 degrees F to 175 degrees F. The push-to-connect end accepts 10mm outside-diameter tubing, making tool-free tube insertion fast and reliable for pneumatic and fluid line work. Nitrile o-rings provide a secure, leak-resistant seal. This fitting is suited to general-purpose pneumatic plumbing tasks and is a common component in compressed-air distribution, instrumentation, and light hydraulic circuits installed by HVAC technicians, plumbers, and industrial maintenance trades.

This adapter is intended for general-purpose pneumatic and fluid transfer applications where a tube line must terminate or connect to a male BSPT-threaded port. The straight configuration keeps the flow path direct with minimal pressure drop. Typical installations include air preparation assemblies, valve manifolds, cylinder porting, and compressed-air distribution panels. The nickel-plated brass construction resists corrosion in light industrial and commercial environments. The BSPT thread conforms to British Standard Pipe Taper specifications, making it appropriate for systems assembled to that threading standard.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect design accepts 10mm OD tubing without tools for fast, repeatable installation
• 260 psi maximum working pressure rated for demanding pneumatic service
• Nickel-plated brass body resists corrosion in industrial and commercial environments
• Nitrile o-ring seal delivers reliable, leak-resistant performance
• BSPT male thread conforms to British Standard Pipe Taper for correct engagement on compatible ports
• Wide operating temperature range of 0 degrees F to 175 degrees F suits varied service conditions

Compatibility

Designed for general-purpose pneumatic and fluid systems requiring a push-to-connect tube connection to a 1/8 inch male BSPT threaded port, compatible with 10mm outside-diameter tubing.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by qualified HVAC technicians, plumbers, or industrial maintenance personnel. Depressurize and isolate the system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Verify that the mating port carries a true BSPT taper thread before assembly, as mixing BSPT with NPT or BSPF threads can result in leaks or thread damage. Insert tubing fully into the push-to-connect end until it seats against the internal stop, and confirm the collet is engaged before returning the line to service.
