Threaded port plug for secure sealing of BSP threads.

BAT TECH-TIP (because knowledge makes the difference): BSP threads are traditional British pipe threads that are often found in plumbing installations, but also in vehicles.
ATTENTION: With BSP threads, the size specification does not correspond to the measured outer diameter of the thread! For example, a 1/2’ BSP thread has an outer diameter of 19.17mm and not the expected 12.7mm. Originally, the specification was based on the inside diameter of the pipe. For example, if a pipe had an internal diameter of 12.7mm (1/2‘), then the required external thread was referred to as a 1/2’ thread. These specifications have continued right up to today's DIN ISO 228 and repeatedly cause confusion for newcomers to thread determination.
On the BSP side, you always need a seal. The type of seal required depends largely on the respective workpiece and its sealing surface. If the thread in your workpiece has a chamfer, then an O-ring can be used. If the sealing surface is flat, sealing rings made of copper (do not use on bare aluminium, as contact corrosion can occur) or aluminium can be used. If the sealing surface is uneven or damaged, the thread can be reliably sealed using a chemical thread sealant.
