Stainless tapered threaded fittings cut to NPT-style geometry. The taper does the sealing by interference, so thread flank finish matters as much as size. Gauged with L1/L2 taper gauges per lot.
Function and Design
Repeat tapered threaded fitting orders are measured against the approved sample, so neither material nor finish drifts between lots. The approved tapered threaded fitting sample governs later runs, and any grade change is agreed in writing first.
Design Highlights
- Thread form is verified with gauges rather than assumed from the tool.
- The taper is turned with a controlled angle so insertion is smooth and seating is repeatable.
- The stainless surface is the finish – nothing to chip in washdown or humid service.
- Material: stainless steel (304 / 316), with mill certificate and heat-number traceability supplied with the first article.
- Process: CNC machining of the tapered threaded fitting with in-process checks on the shop-floor gauge, thread turning to gauge.
- Finish: The tapered threaded fitting finish is set by the drawing: natural, plated or coated, with masking where required.
- Size: Quoted from your print, so the tapered threaded fitting size you approve is the size that repeats.
- Custom: Custom production of the tapered threaded fitting to print, MOQ set by the drawing rather than a catalogue.
Applications
In service you will find this part in automation and robotics hardware, instrumentation fittings, electronic and telecom enclosures.
Factory-Direct Advantage
We machine in house on maintained turning and milling centres. The tapered threaded fitting ships with the record of its own inspection.
