NPT to BSP adaptor

Long shot this one:

Anyone got a 1/4NPT (male) to 1/4BSP (male or female) adapter laying about?

Cheers,
David

My experience is that in small sizes (under 1" ) NPT and BSP threads are close enough to be interchangable.

Cheers

you've probably got one.

Just wrap PTFE around the threads and screw together.

If you get stuck, I'll make you one. The threads are close but not the same and with fittings that small it's easy for the threads to jam so when you come to remove them, they just snap off.

It'll be fine, most of my oil press and fuel connections are like it!
