BSP MI (Malleable Iron) Fittings are robust, versatile, and highly durable piping components specifically engineered with British Standard Pipe (BSP) threads. Manufactured from premium malleable iron that has undergone a specialized annealing process, these fittings transform from a brittle state into a tough, ductile material with excellent impact resistance and vibration damping properties. Shanxi Xinshunda Flange Manufacturing Co., Ltd. produces BSP-threaded fittings in strict compliance with international standards including ISO 7-1 (BSPT) and ISO 228 (BSPP). Available in both Black and Hot-Dip Galvanized finishes, our fittings provide reliable, leak-proof connections for water, gas, air, and steam applications, particularly in European and Commonwealth markets. Comprehensive mechanical testing and quality certifications are guaranteed with every shipment.
Production Details
Our ASTM A193 bolts are produced using state-of-the-art CNC machinery to ensure every thread and hexagonal head meets precise engineering drawings. The raw materials undergo strict chemical composition analysis before entering the production line. Each fastener is subjected to rigorous surface inspection to ensure the absence of defects such as cracks, laps, or improper coating. The dimensional accuracy is verified using advanced measuring instruments, ensuring a perfect match with your mating flanges.
Product Properties and Application
Product Properties
Superior Ductility & Toughness: The annealing process converts hard, brittle white iron into a malleable form, allowing the fittings to absorb stress, vibration, and impact without cracking.
BSP Thread Compatibility: Precision-machined BSPT (taper) or BSPP (parallel) threads ensure seamless compatibility and leak-tight seals with British Standard piping systems widely used in Europe, Asia, and Oceania.
High Pressure & Temperature Resistance: Class 150 fittings are rated for up to 300 PSI at ambient temperatures, while Class 300 fittings handle up to 2000 PSI, making them suitable for demanding industrial services.
Optimal Corrosion Protection: Available in Black (for gas/oil) or Hot-Dip Galvanized finishes (with a zinc coating ≥500g/m²) to resist rust and corrosion in various environments.
Application
BSP MI Fittings are extensively used in systems requiring strong, reliable, and vibration-resistant threaded connections, especially in regions adhering to British Standard piping specifications. Key applications include Fire Protection Sprinkler Systems, Plumbing and Water Supply Lines (residential and commercial), and HVAC Systems (steam and hot water). They are also widely utilized in Compressed Air Piping, Gas and Fuel Distribution, and Industrial Machinery where frequent assembly and disassembly for maintenance are required.

QA & QC
At Shanxi Xinshunda, we implement a rigorous Quality Control system for our BSP MI Fittings. Every fitting undergoes strict dimensional inspections using calibrated gauges to ensure compliance with ISO 49 and EN 10242 standards. We perform 100% Air Pressure Underwater Testing to verify leak tightness. Surface defects and thread accuracy are thoroughly checked using specialized BSPT/BSPP thread gauges. Material composition and mechanical properties are verified through certified laboratory tests, and Mill Test Certificates (EN 10204 3.1) are provided with every shipment.
Packing, Storage, Handling and Transportation
To protect the product during transit, each fitting is carefully cleaned and coated. Smaller fittings are individually wrapped in plastic bags or bubble wrap, while larger components are stacked and securely fixed on strong plywood pallets. For international shipping, products are packed in sturdy plywood cases with ample cushioning to prevent movement and surface scratches. Each package is clearly labeled with the size, material, pressure class, quantity, and batch number. Store in a dry, well-ventilated area to prevent prolonged exposure to moisture.
