15mm coupler

[b3atts]

Hi, are there any couplers that would attach 15mm threads together. ie attach x2 compression threads together. Id have thought there would be a female 15mm to female 15mm coupler would be availible but cannot find one anywhere.
Thanks for an replys

The threads aren't really designed to seal so I doubt there will be. If there was you'd need a rubber seal or PTFE or some similar sealant. You might find a simple nut or something.

What are you trying to do? Surely there is a better way?

is it a 1/2" socket you want?,

thanks for the replys.
would this fit a 15mm thread.
I basically have a flexible braided pipe with a 15mm compression connection and i have to fit it to a tap 15mm compression connection (not a sink tap, just an outdoor tap but its going in the cupboard under the sink for a hose when i wash my car).
a coupler to join these together would be much easier than using pipe.

would this one fit also?

yes but as someone else said you need to seal the threads

15mm compression fittinga are 1/2" BSP (no other size compression is BSP).
A 1/2" brass socket is what you want. I'd use Loctite 55 to seal it rather than PTFE tape. More expensive, but you gets what you pays for.

A strand of hemp is even cheaper - stuff the alleged microbiological growth

Am I missing something here? What could be simpler than using a short bit of pipe between the two compression fittings?
