TYPE:
Straight Male x Male Nipple – ORFS Male x BSPT Male
CONNECTIONS:
- End 1: ORFS Male – O-Ring Face Seal (SAE J1453)
- End 2: BSPT Male – British Standard Pipe Taper (ISO 7/1)
DESCRIPTION:
The 1FT adaptor provides a transition between an ORFS male connection and a BSPT female port. The ORFS side features a straight UNF thread and elastomeric O-ring face seal, while the BSPT end uses a tapered thread that seals through thread interference and sealant. This combination is ideal for adapting American SAE-standard hydraulic components to older or Australian-built BSPT-threaded systems.
COMMON APPLICATIONS:
- Connecting ORFS hoses or ports to BSPT-threaded equipment
- Used in retrofits, repairs, or upgrades to mix SAE and BSP standards
- Ideal for hydraulic cylinders, manifolds, and valve connections
- Suited for high-pressure mobile, agricultural, and earthmoving systems
SUITS THESE MACHINES:
- Bobcat, Komatsu, Case, CAT, and Hitachi equipment
- Australian-made farm or construction machinery with BSPT threads
- Hybrid hydraulic systems using ORFS and BSP fittings together
THREAD & SEAL DETAILS:
- ORFS: SAE J1453 – UNF thread, flat-face O-ring seal
- BSPT: ISO 7/1 – British tapered thread, requires thread tape or sealant
- Note: Do not rely on thread engagement alone—seal integrity depends on correct installation torque and sealing material
