Description
Pipe to female BSP
Bring the end of a 25mm MDPE pipe run to a component with a ¾-inch male BSP thread. This black elbow turns the connection through 90°, using a grey compression nut for the pipe and an internal female socket for the threaded component.
Check both ends before ordering: the pipe diameter and nominal BSP thread size describe different connections. Leave room around the corner to assemble the joints and support the pipework.
One elbow supplied. The illustration leaves the female socket open to show its thread. Pipe and support clip are separate.
Choose by each connection
The pipe end and threaded socket need different checks.
25mm MDPE compression end
Measure the outside diameter of the MDPE pipe, rather than the nut or the hole through the fitting. This end takes 25mm pipe; it is not a hosetail for flexible garden hose.
¾-inch female BSP socket
The socket has its threads on the inside and accepts a compatible ¾-inch male BSP fitting. Nominal BSP sizes are not direct inch-to-millimetre conversions. Open “What is BSP?” in the product information below for identification help.
Assemble with access and support
Plan the threaded joint and compression connection together.
Prepare sound pipe
Isolate and depressurise the supply. Cut the pipe square and clean its end. Follow the fitting guidance for insertion depth, assembly and any pipe-liner requirement.
Align the threaded fitting
Start the matching male thread squarely in the female socket. Use the sealing method appropriate to that joint and avoid cross-threading or overtightening the plastic fitting.
Support both sides
Support the pipe and attached component independently. Their weight should not pull on the elbow. Restore the supply gradually and inspect both joints; service conditions must suit the complete assembly.
Choosing this elbow
Will it add a branch to a continuing pipe run?
No. This elbow has two ends: one 25mm pipe connection and one ¾-inch female BSP socket at 90°. It turns the connection at the end of the run. You need a suitable tee or branch fitting for a separate outlet while the main run continues.
Is the female threaded end another 25mm pipe socket?
No. Only the grey-nut compression end takes 25mm MDPE pipe. The black female socket accepts a matching ¾-inch male BSP thread, not a second plain pipe end.

What is BSP?
What is BSP thread size?
BSP (British Standard Pipe) is a nominal pipe-thread size, not a direct measurement of a fitting’s bore or outside diameter. For example, a ½-inch BSP male thread measures about 21mm across its outer thread crests.
These figures are approximate outside diameters of male BSP threads, to help identify the nominal size. They are not inch-to-millimetre unit conversions:
- 3/8" BSP → 16.66 mm
- 1/2" BSP → 20.95 mm
- 3/4" BSP → 26.44 mm
- 1" BSP → 33.25 mm
- 1.25" BSP → 41.91 mm
- 1.5" BSP → 47.80 mm
- 2" BSP → 59.61 mm
- 3" BSP → 87.88 mm
- 4" BSP → 113.03 mm
All our BSP threads are parallel (BSPP, to ISO 228), not tapered.
Measure across the outside of a male thread, then check its pitch and whether it is parallel or tapered. Diameter alone does not confirm compatibility. Check the product’s stated thread specification before connecting.
