FAQ
VS threaded fittings are available in a comprehensive range including elbows for directional changes in 45-degree and 90-degree angles, tees for three-way branch connections, couplings for joining two straight pipe sections, unions for providing a removable connection point in the pipeline, nipples for short straight extensions, sockets for connecting pipes of different diameters, and caps for sealing pipe ends. All fittings feature precision-cut BSP or NPT tapered threads conforming to IS 1239 standards, ensuring leak-free joints when assembled with compatible thread sealant. The fittings are manufactured from high-quality mild steel or galvanized iron, with the GI option providing enhanced corrosion resistance for water supply and outdoor applications.
VS threaded fittings are primarily used in residential and commercial plumbing systems for water supply and distribution lines where threaded connections allow for easy assembly without specialized welding equipment. They are also widely applied in heating systems for connecting radiators, boilers, and hot water circulation loops, where the ability to disassemble threaded joints facilitates maintenance and component replacement. In industrial settings, VS fittings serve in low-to-medium pressure process piping for compressed air distribution, cooling water circuits, and non-critical fluid transfer lines up to 150 PSI working pressure.
BSP (British Standard Pipe) and NPT (National Pipe Taper) are the two most common thread standards for pipe fittings, and they are not interchangeable. BSP threads have a 55-degree thread angle with rounded peaks and valleys, while NPT threads use a 60-degree angle with flattened peaks and valleys. BSP threads seal through a compression fit using a bonded seal ring or O-ring at the shoulder, whereas NPT threads seal through thread deformation. VS threaded fittings are available in both BSP and NPT configurations. BSP is more common in India, the UK, Europe, Asia, and Australia, while NPT is standard in the United States and Canada.
