JOINER NIPPLE BSP 1 1/2" (40mm) PHILMAC 90425500 at a glance

Philmac’s robust threaded fittings provide precision BSP tapered threads that have been engineered to maximise sealing performance.

The versatile range is made from high performance, UV resistant polypropylene that does not absorb moisture.

Installation is quick, simple and reliable every time.

The material is also potable water (AS/NZ 4020) approved. (Note: Products marked “Ancillary” are not potable water approved.)

Philmac’s threaded fittings provide maximum versatility, delivering a high performance connection across a wide range of pressure ratings and chemical combinations.

The hexagonal body makes them extremely simple to install. Importantly, Philmac threaded fittings are suitable for working pressures up to PN16 for sizes up to 2”, PN12 for 2-1/2” and PN10 for 3” and 4” sized fittings.

Smart hexagonal design makes the fittings compatible with tools and ensures that Philmac BSP threaded fittings are extremely easy to install.

Philmac threaded fittings are manufactured from high quality materials that ensure strong connections for many years.

The material also has a high degree of UV resistance to ensure long term performance even in direct sunlight.

Install the JOINER NIPPLE BSP 1 1/2" (40mm) by inserting the barbed ends fully into the poly pipe until the fitting body contacts the pipe. Secure both connections with stainless steel hose clamps tightened firmly around the barbs to prevent leakage under pressure. Ensure the poly pipe ends are cut cleanly and straight before insertion for a proper seal. Allow 24 hours for any system to stabilise before operating at full pressure. Tips: Always use stainless steel clamps specifically rated for rural poly systems to prevent rust and ensure longevity in Queensland's climate. Pre-warm the poly pipe slightly in warm water before inserting barbed fittings to ease installation and improve the seal. This nipple is ideal for joining two lengths of 1 1/2" poly pipe in gravity-fed or pump systems where flexibility and easy disconnection may be needed in future.
