Prevost Brass Equal Socket

Description

Prevost Brass Equal Socket

Heavy-Duty Internal Thread Connector for Secure Pipe Extension

The Prevost Brass Equal Socket (also known as a straight coupling) is a high-quality threaded fitting used to join two male-threaded pipes, nipples, or fittings of the same size in a straight line. Precision-machined from solid industrial brass, this socket provides a robust and permanent connection point for air, water, or fluid distribution systems.

Designed to withstand the high-pressure demands of professional workshops, the Prevost Equal Socket is a reliable alternative to lightweight, thin-walled hardware store fittings that often crack under stress.

Key Features

• Uniform Female Threading: Features identical female threads on both ends, allowing for the seamless extension of air lines or the connection of male-threaded components without changing the flow diameter.
• Corrosion-Resistant Industrial Brass: Naturally resistant to rust and chemical oxidation. This makes it ideal for use in compressed air systems where moisture and compressor oils are present.
• Thick-Walled Construction: Engineered with a heavy-duty wall thickness to handle high-pressure spikes and mechanical vibration. The added mass also allows for high torque during installation without deforming the fitting.
• Clean-Cut Precision Threads: Available in standard NPT or BSP configurations. The threads are machined to strict tolerances to ensure a deep, airtight seal when used with a standard thread sealant or tape.
• Compact and Practical: The cylindrical exterior is designed for easy installation in tight spaces, while the internal stop ensures that both pipes are seated correctly for a balanced connection.

Technical Specifications

Common Applications

• Pipe Extensions: Joining two lengths of male-threaded rigid pipe to increase the reach of a pneumatic run.
• Component Mounting: Connecting a male-threaded pressure gauge or sensor to a male-threaded manifold port.
• Tool Adaptation: Bridging two male-threaded fittings together, such as connecting a male-threaded plug to a male-threaded hose barb.
• Custom Manifolds: Serving as a structural link when building specialized air distribution blocks or headers.

Why Choose Prevost Brass?

Prevost fittings are manufactured to meet industrial standards, ensuring that internal bores are smooth to minimize turbulence. This ensures that your air tools receive the maximum volume of air with the least amount of pressure drop, maintaining peak performance across your entire system.
