JOINER SOCKET BSP 1/2" (15mm) PHILMAC 90431100 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.

Insert the 1/2" BSP male thread into the socket connection point and hand-tighten first to ensure proper alignment. Use two adjustable wrenches — one to hold the fitting body steady while turning the threaded end with the other — to avoid over-tightening which can damage the fitting. Wrap thread tape (PTFE) around the male thread 3–4 times in a clockwise direction before final tightening for a watertight seal. Check for leaks after 24 hours of system operation. Tips: This joiner socket is ideal for connecting poly pipe to threaded components like taps, meters, or pump outlets in farm water systems. Always ensure the threaded connection is rated to your system pressure (typically 800kPa for rural poly pipe) and use stainless steel clamps on any barb connections in the same system. Store fittings in a cool, shaded location as UV exposure can degrade poly pipe over time.
