Model ATRI “Trisure” thread adapter to 2″ BSP (Black)

Tips
What is the thread size/fitting on my drum?
Steel containers generally have a 3/4″ and/or 2″BSP (British Standard Pipe) or fine thread. It is very difficult to produce plastic containers with such a fine thread and so they have more coarse threads. The two most common plastic threads are a 56 x 4 Buttress Thread and the more coarser 70 x 6 Buttress Thread. Most drum pumps will have a ‘standard’ 2” BSP thread and so we supply Drum Adapters to suit both of the Buttress threads above. Containers can have Internal (Female) threads (as above) or External (Male) threads which are sealed with a cap. You can still use a drum pump on these threads with our External Thread Adapter (see Drum Pumps & Adapters).
