Norgren 101471248 Push-to-connect Male Bspt Tube Fitting

Product Description

The NORGREN 101471248 is a push-to-connect tube fitting with male BSPT threaded ends, designed for pneumatic and fluid control plumbing applications. Constructed from nickel-plated brass, this fitting accepts 12 mm outside diameter tubing on both tube ports and provides a male BSPT threaded connection in the center, rated for a maximum working pressure of 260 psi. The push-to-connect mechanism allows fast, tool-free tube insertion, reducing installation time in compressed air lines, instrumentation tubing runs, and light hydraulic systems. It is typically installed by plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance technicians working with metric tubing and inch BSPT threaded manifolds or valves.

This fitting is suited for use in compressed air distribution, pneumatic control circuits, and fluid handling systems where a reliable inline or branch tube-to-male-thread connection is required. The nitrile O-ring seals support both air and compatible fluid media. The operating temperature range of 0 degrees F to 175 degrees F makes it appropriate for indoor industrial environments and commercial HVAC pneumatic controls. It ships as a single fitting and is sold individually.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect design on both tube ports allows tool-free tube insertion and removal
• Male BSPT thread for direct connection to BSPT-threaded valves, manifolds, or fittings
• Nickel-plated brass construction resists corrosion in pneumatic and light fluid service
• 260 psi maximum working pressure rating for compressed air and compatible fluid lines
• Nitrile O-ring seals provide reliable sealing across the operating temperature range
• Compatible with 12 mm outside diameter tubing

Compatibility

Designed for use with 12 mm outside diameter tubing and BSPT-threaded pneumatic or fluid control components in industrial and commercial systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified plumber, pipefitter, or industrial maintenance technician familiar with pneumatic or fluid piping systems. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before removing or installing any fitting. Ensure tubing is cut squarely and deburred before inserting into the push-to-connect port to achieve a proper seal. Verify that thread engagement with the BSPT port is appropriate for the application and that the system is leak-tested before returning to service.
