ABS Female Adapter
The ABS Female Adapter is a reliable and durable fitting designed to provide a secure transition between threaded pipe connections and solvent-weld ABS piping systems. Manufactured from high-quality Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) plastic, it offers excellent strength, toughness, and resistance to impact, making it ideal for demanding industrial and plumbing applications. One end of the adapter features a solvent weld socket for easy bonding with ABS pipes, while the other end is equipped with a female threaded connection (BSP/NPT) to accept a male-threaded fitting or pipe.
Compliant with international standards ISO 15493, BS 5391, and ASTM D2467, this adapter is suitable for pressure applications up to PN 10–PN 15 (~150 PSI at 20°C) and operates reliably within a wide temperature range of -40°C to +70°C. It is resistant to dilute acids, alkalis, and salts, ensuring long-lasting performance. Lightweight, easy to install, and corrosion-resistant, the ABS Female Adapter is an essential component for modern piping systems.
