Prevost PPS Aluminum Tapping Flange (Parallel Female Thread)
Add a Drop Point Anywhere—Without Cutting the Pipe.
The Prevost Aluminum Tapping Flange is the ultimate solution for expanding your compressed air system on the fly. Designed for the Prevost PPS Aluminum Pipe network, this flange allows you to create a new threaded outlet directly on the side of an existing pipe run without the need to cut the main line or disassemble the system.
Featuring a Parallel Female Thread (BSPP/G-Thread), this flange provides a secure, leak-free anchor point for installing drop legs, quick couplers, or additional branch lines exactly where you need them.
Key Features & Benefits
- Easy “Hot Tap” Installation: Install a new outlet in minutes. Simply drill a hole in the main aluminum pipe using the appropriate jig and secure the flange. There is no need to cut the pipe or drain the entire system (if using specialized hot-tap tools), saving hours of downtime.
- 100% Aluminum Construction: Made from high-grade aluminum alloy to match the thermal expansion and corrosion resistance of your Prevost piping. It ensures the system remains lightweight and rust-free.
- Leak-Proof Seal: Engineered with an integrated high-performance O-ring gasket that contours perfectly to the pipe surface, creating an airtight seal that creates zero pressure loss.
- Modular Flexibility: Allows you to place a drop point exactly where a machine or workstation is located, rather than being limited to where pipe joints are.
- Parallel Thread (BSPP): Features a precision-machined parallel female thread, ideal for connecting standard pneumatic fittings, valves, or threaded drop tubes.

Why Choose the Prevost Tapping Flange?
Traditional piping requires you to shut down, cut the pipe, and install a heavy T-fitting just to add an outlet. The Prevost Tapping Flange bypasses this headache. It is the smartest, fastest, and most cost-effective way to adapt your air system to your changing business needs.
