Description
Thread adapter, Type 2 is a polypropylene (PP) laboratory fitting that converts an R2'' BSP fine female thread to an S71 female thread. Supplied in brown, this female-to-female adapter enables secure mechanical connection between equipment and containers that use these two common thread standards. Polypropylene construction provides chemical resistance suitable for many solvents and reagents encountered in analytical and preparative laboratory work. The Type 2 design addresses a specific interface requirement in solvent supply, waste collection and general fluid-transfer systems where mismatched threads would otherwise interrupt workflow. Laboratories can integrate the adapter into existing setups without custom machining or improvised couplings, helping maintain reliable joints under normal operating conditions. Offered as a single piece from manufacturer SCAT, it supports standardised connections in research, quality-control and process environments. The brown PP body is intended for routine handling where durable, chemically compatible thread conversion is needed between R2'' BSP fine and S71 interfaces. This adapter belongs to the thread-adapter category used throughout chemical and life-science laboratories for everyday drum, bottle and system interfacing.

Questions about Thread adapter, Type 2
What is this article?
Thread adapter, Type 2 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes SCAT for laboratory use. It sits in Hose connectors, adapters & fittings, inside Tubing, hoses & fittings, in Labware.
A hose connector or adapter joins two lines, or steps one bore down to another. The barb diameter has to match the tube, and the thread has to match the stopcock or the bottle. Most leaks are a mismatch here, not a hole in the tube.
Tubing is how a liquid or a gas moves between two vessels without being poured. Silicone stays flexible and survives repeated autoclaving. PTFE resists almost every solvent and is stiff. PVC is the ordinary flexible line for water and for mild aqueous work. The fitting, not the tube, is what usually leaks: the barb, the thread and the stopcock have to match the tube bore. Glass and plastic apparatus around these lines is indexed under ISO laboratory ware.
