Standard fittings

API Standard Fittings (Series A) provide a solution for connections in compressed air and fluid systems. These fittings are made of nickel-plated brass and are available in many configurations, such as reducers, increasers, elbows, tees, crosses, Y-pieces, plugs, and special banjo fittings. They support BSP, BSPT, and metric threads (from M5x0.8 to 1″) and are suitable for pressures up to 60 bar and a temperature range of -40°C to +150°C (or -20°C to +80°C when using NBR seals). The series complies with REACH and RoHS directives and is available for modular applications in industrial installations; they are also available in stainless steel.
