FAQs
What does BSP stand for and is it compatible with NPT?
BSP stands for British Standard Pipe. It is not directly compatible with NPT (National Pipe Thread) due to differences in thread form and angle. This adaptor is exclusively for BSP threads.
Can I use this adaptor for high-pressure water lines?
This adaptor is designed for standard irrigation pressures. For high-pressure industrial or plumbing applications, it is recommended to use components specifically rated for those pressures.
How many adaptors are included in a pack?
Each pack contains five (5) HydroSure Bush Adaptors.
What is the material of the adaptor?
The adaptor is constructed from durable and weather-resistant materials suitable for outdoor irrigation use.
Can I connect a 1'' male thread to a 3/4'' female thread with this adaptor?
No, this adaptor is specifically designed to connect a 3/4 inch BSP male thread to a 1 inch BSP female thread. It cannot be used in reverse.
Do I need any special tools to install this adaptor?
No, installation is typically done by hand-tightening. No special tools are required for basic setup.
Troubleshooting
Leaking connection
Ensure the threads are properly aligned and hand-tightened sufficiently. Check for any debris on the threads of the connecting components or the adaptor. If the leak persists, the seal may be compromised, and the adaptor might need replacement.
Difficulty screwing components together
Verify that you are attempting to connect the correct thread sizes (3/4" male to 1" female). Ensure there is no cross-threading by backing off and re-aligning the threads before attempting to screw them together again. Check for any damage to the threads on either the component or the adaptor.
Adaptor not sealing properly
Confirm that the mating surfaces are clean and free of obstructions. Ensure the adaptor is compatible with the specific BSP thread standard being used and that it is tightened adequately.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Ensure the threads on both the connecting component and the adaptor are clean and free of debris.
Screw the 3/4 inch male BSP thread of the component into the 1 inch female BSP thread of the adaptor.
Screw the 1 inch male BSP thread of the adaptor into the 1 inch female BSP receiving port.
Hand-tighten firmly to ensure a secure, leak-free connection. Avoid over-tightening, which could damage the threads.
Compatibility:
This adaptor is specifically designed for 3/4 inch BSP male threads and 1 inch BSP female threads. BSP (British Standard Pipe) is a widely used thread standard in many regions.
It is not compatible with NPT (National Pipe Thread) or other thread types.
Always verify the thread size and type of your existing components before use.
Care:
Periodically inspect the adaptor for any signs of wear or damage.
Clean the exterior with a damp cloth if necessary. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.
Ensure connections remain tight to prevent leaks, especially after periods of non-use.
