The requirement
A customer was extending an existing stainless system to incorporate a chiller unit.
The installation required a combination of stainless press fittings and 150lb stainless steel BSP threaded
fittings, including some less common reducing configurations that were not part of the standard range they already
had available.
They needed the additional fittings sourced so the new chiller could be incorporated into the wider stainless system.
How we helped
- Discussed the additional connection requirements for the chiller installation
- Supplied 150lb stainless steel BSP threaded fittings alongside stainless press fittings
- Sourced specialist reducing fittings outside the standard stocked range
- Provided reducing tees and other less common configurations required for the installation
- Helped source the additional components needed to complete the stainless system extension
Supply detail
plumbland stocks a broad range of 150lb stainless steel BSP threaded fittings in sizes from 1/4" to 2", with
larger sizes available to order. Standard stocked fittings include tees, 90 degree elbows, unions, caps, plugs,
reducing bushes, hose tails, sockets, barrel nipples, hex nipples and flanges.
For this requirement, products were sourced from the wider range, including reducing tees, reducing sockets, running
nipples and other specialist reducing configurations. Stainless press fittings required for the wider installation
were supplied alongside the BSP fittings.
Final fitting selection, thread compatibility and system specification remain the responsibility of the installer,
contractor or project engineer.
