Description
Polypropylene Reducing Bush – Male x Female BSP Threaded
Our Polypropylene Reducing Bush provides a simple and reliable solution for reducing the size of a female BSP threaded connection. Manufactured from durable black polypropylene (PP), this fitting is lightweight, corrosion-resistant and ideal for irrigation, agricultural water supply and industrial pipework applications.
Featuring a larger male BSP thread and smaller female BSP thread, the reducing bush allows different sizes of threaded fittings, valves and pipework components to be connected without the need for additional adaptors. With a 10 bar working pressure rating, it offers a practical and cost-effective alternative to traditional metal reducing bushes.
The robust polypropylene construction provides excellent resistance to rust and corrosion, making these fittings particularly suitable for outdoor installations, irrigation systems and general water distribution networks.

Typical Applications
Polypropylene reducing bushes are commonly used to reduce threaded connection sizes on valves, pumps, manifolds, tank fittings and irrigation pipework. They provide a convenient way to adapt existing female BSP connections to smaller threaded components without replacing the original fitting.
Their non-metallic construction makes them particularly useful in agricultural environments, outdoor water distribution systems and installations where corrosion resistance is important.
Installation Note: Use a suitable thread sealant compatible with polypropylene fittings. Avoid overtightening, as excessive force may damage the plastic threads. Confirm BSP thread compatibility before installation.
