OVERVIEW

High-Performance Brass Pipe Coupling for Industrial Applications

The Western Enterprises BF-4HP is a premium-grade pipe thread coupling designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial, welding, and laboratory environments. Engineered from high-quality brass, this fitting provides a robust solution for connecting two male pipe threads with absolute security. The unit features 1/4-inch NPT Female threads on both ends, making it a versatile component for a wide array of pneumatic and gas distribution systems. Its construction is specifically tailored to withstand elevated pressures, boasting a substantial rating of 3000 PSIG, which ensures integrity even in high-stress manifold configurations.

Precision manufacturing is at the core of the BF-4HP's design. The coupling has a total length of 1.197 inches and features a 3/4-inch RC Hex body. This hexagonal profile is critical for installation, allowing technicians to apply the necessary torque using standard wrenches without stripping or deforming the fitting. The brass material not only offers excellent mechanical strength but also provides natural resistance to corrosion, a vital characteristic when dealing with various industrial gases and environmental conditions. Whether utilized in the assembly of gas regulation equipment, the construction of custom manifolds, or general facility maintenance, this coupling delivers consistent performance.

Safety and compliance are paramount in high-pressure gas systems. The BF-4HP is manufactured in Taiwan to strict quality standards, ensuring that the threads are cut cleanly and accurately to engage fully with mating parts. This reduces the risk of cross-threading and guarantees a leak-tight seal when used with appropriate thread sealants. While primarily designed for inert gas and general industrial fluid handling, the high pressure rating makes it a superior choice over standard plumbing fittings which may not be rated for compressed gas cylinder pressures. It is an essential component for MRO inventories where reliability cannot be compromised.

In summary, the Western Enterprises BF-4HP combines durability, precision, and high-pressure capability into a compact form factor. It is an indispensable fitting for professionals requiring secure 1/4" NPT connections in systems operating up to 3000 PSIG.

FAQ

This coupling features 1/4" NPT Female threads on both ends.

The BF-4HP is rated for pressures up to 3000 PSIG.

It is manufactured from high-quality brass.

The body has a 3/4" hex shape, so you will need a 3/4" wrench.

While brass is compatible with oxygen, this specific part is not explicitly labeled as 'cleaned for oxygen service' in the provided data. For pure oxygen applications, ensure fittings are degreased and cleaned according to CGA G-4.1 standards.

Yes, as long as the fluid is compatible with brass and the pressure does not exceed 3000 PSIG.

The Country of Origin is Taiwan.

Warranty terms depend on the manufacturer, but Western Enterprises fittings are generally guaranteed against manufacturing defects.
