Extended Product Information
FAQs
What material is the Sealey Stem Adaptor made from?
The adaptor is constructed from a strong Acetal Copolymer, known for its durability and resistance to many chemicals.
Can this adaptor be used for applications other than air and water?
While designed for compressed air and potable water, its suitability for other fluids would depend on the fluid's chemical compatibility with Acetal Copolymer and the system's operating pressure and temperature. Consult specific chemical resistance charts if considering non-standard applications.
How many adaptors are included in a pack?
Each pack contains two Sealey Stem Adaptors.
What is the thread size of the male connection?
The male thread size is 3/4" BSP (British Standard Pipe).
What is the pipe size for the Speedfit connection?
The Speedfit connection is designed for 22mm outside diameter (OD) pipe.
Do I need any special tools to install this adaptor?
No, special tools are not required. The Speedfit end connects by simply pushing the pipe in, and the BSP end connects using standard wrenching techniques.
Troubleshooting
Leak from the 3/4" BSP connection
Ensure sufficient thread sealant (PTFE tape or liquid sealant) was applied to the male thread. Reapply sealant and tighten the connection more firmly, ensuring the receiving thread is not damaged.
Pipe is not secure in the 22mm Speedfit end
Ensure the pipe was pushed in straight and fully seated. Check the pipe end for damage or deformation. If the pipe is damaged, cut off the damaged section and reinsert.
Difficulty pushing pipe into the fitting
Ensure the pipe end is clean, cut square, and free of burrs. A slight chamfer on the pipe end can assist insertion. Ensure you are using the correct size pipe (22mm).

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Ensure the 22mm pipe end is clean, cut square, and free from burrs.
Push the 22mm pipe firmly into the Speedfit end of the stem adaptor until it is fully seated.
For the 3/4" BSP connection, apply appropriate thread sealant (e.g., PTFE tape or pipe sealant) to the male thread before screwing it into the receiving fitting.
Tighten the BSP connection securely, but avoid over-tightening.
