The STORZ female BSP aluminum half-coupling is a fast, reliable connection solution designed for fire-fighting networks, hydraulic installations and industrial applications. It provides a secure connection to male threaded equipment, while retaining the advantages of the STORZ symmetrical system on the coupling side.
Featuring a BSP (British Standard Pipe) female thread, this fitting ensures optimum compatibility with a wide range of standardized equipment. Its aluminum design guarantees lightness, mechanical strength and excellent corrosion resistance, even under intensive use.
How the STORZ female BSP connector works
The STORZ coupling is based on a symmetrical connection principle with no distinction between male and female on the coupling side. Locking is achieved by engaging the claws and then rotating by a quarter-turn, ensuring a fast, tight and secure connection.
In this configuration, the half-coupling is fitted with a female BSP thread, enabling it to be mounted directly onto a male threaded nipple or equipment. This makes it the ideal interface between a threaded network and a STORZ quick-connect system.
Differences from other types of fire connections
In fire and hydraulic systems, several connection systems are used, depending on standards and applications:
Threaded fittings: robust and watertight, they require complete screwing, which makes them less suitable for rapid intervention.
Guillemin fittings (DSP/ARI): widely used in France, these use a locking ring system. They are reliable to use, but require more technical handling.
Express fittings: simple to use, they are mainly used for water and certain light industrial applications.
STORZ fittings: quick to install, easy to use and reliable. Its symmetrical system reduces handling errors and optimizes response times, particularly in fire and industrial environments.
