The 7062 Male ORB to Male BSPP Straight is an international conversion adapter designed to connect hydraulic components using SAE O-Ring Boss (ORB) and British Standard Pipe Parallel (BSPP) threads. Its straight configuration provides a direct connection between the two thread systems without changing the direction of the hydraulic line.
Built in steel and offered in multiple size combinations, the 7062 is a practical choice for hydraulic equipment that combines ORB and BSPP connections.
ORB to BSPP Connection in One Fitting
Hydraulic systems can use different thread standards depending on the equipment, manufacturer, or market where the machinery is used. The 7062 helps bridge that gap by combining a Male ORB connection with a Male BSPP connection in one straight adapter.
This makes it useful for connecting components that otherwise would require separate conversion fittings.
The straight design keeps the two connection points aligned, making the adapter suitable where the hydraulic line can remain in a direct path.
Male ORB Connection
The ORB side uses a male O-Ring Boss connection. ORB fittings rely on an O-ring sealing interface to create a reliable connection when the correct mating port and installation procedure are used.
ORB connections are widely used in hydraulic equipment where controlled sealing and precise connection orientation are important. The 7062 brings that connection type together with a BSPP male thread on the opposite side.
Male BSPP Connection
The second side of the 7062 uses a Male BSPP thread.
BSPP stands for British Standard Pipe Parallel. Unlike tapered pipe threads, BSPP uses parallel threads and relies on an appropriate sealing method rather than thread taper alone.
Gear House Hydraulics specifically notes that bonded seals are required for secure sealing when using male BSPP threads in ports or blocks, and the bonded seals are not included with the fitting. The 7062 is compatible with the 9900 Bonded Seal series.
Steel Construction
The Gear House Hydraulics collection lists the 7062 in steel, making it suitable for a wide range of hydraulic applications where a strong metal adapter is required.
The steel construction works with the fitting's compact straight configuration to provide a practical connection between ORB and BSPP hydraulic components.
Straight Design for Clean Hydraulic Routing
The 7062 keeps both connection points in a straight line. This is useful when the connected hydraulic components are already positioned for direct routing.
A straight adapter can help avoid unnecessary directional changes and additional fittings, keeping the connection arrangement more compact.
For installations involving international hydraulic components, selecting the correct conversion adapter can also reduce unnecessary connection points in the assembly.
BSPP and NPTF Are Different Thread Systems
Thread identification matters when selecting hydraulic adapters.
The Gear House Hydraulics page specifically notes that BSPP threads have a 55-degree thread flank angle, distinguishing them from NPTF threads, which use a 60-degree angle.
Because BSPP and NPTF are different thread systems, they should not be treated as interchangeable simply because their nominal sizes may appear similar.
Always verify the thread type on the mating port before ordering.
Why Choose the 7062?
The 7062 is a practical option when your hydraulic system requires:
- Male ORB to Male BSPP conversion
- Straight connection routing
- Steel construction
- Multiple size combinations
- International thread conversion
- O-ring sealing on the ORB side
- Bonded-seal compatibility on the BSPP side
- Compact hydraulic connection
Its main purpose is simple: connect two different hydraulic thread systems without adding unnecessary complexity to the assembly.
Selecting the Correct 7062
Before ordering, verify both sides of the hydraulic connection.
Check the following:
- ORB size — Confirm the SAE ORB port size.
- BSPP size — Confirm that the mating port uses BSPP rather than NPT, NPTF, or another thread standard.
- Connection configuration — The 7062 is a straight Male ORB × Male BSPP adapter.
- Seal requirement — Male BSPP connections require the appropriate bonded seal for secure sealing.
- System requirements — Confirm pressure, temperature, fluid, and installation requirements for the complete assembly.
The correct thread identification is especially important when working with international hydraulic equipment.
Bonded Seal Requirement
One detail should not be overlooked when installing the 7062: the Male BSPP side requires a bonded seal when installed into a suitable BSPP port or block.
Gear House Hydraulics states that the bonded seals are not included with the 7062 collection and identifies compatibility with its 9900 Bonded Seal series.
Using the appropriate sealing component helps ensure that the BSPP connection is assembled correctly.
Gear House Hydraulics 7062
Gear House Hydraulics offers the 7062 Male ORB to Male BSPP Straight in several common hydraulic sizes. The collection is listed as steel and includes both equal-size and reducing configurations.
For hydraulic systems combining SAE ORB and British Standard Pipe Parallel connections, the 7062 provides a direct conversion solution in a compact straight fitting.
Order 7062 Male ORB to Male BSPP
When your hydraulic equipment uses ORB on one side and BSPP on the other, the 7062 Male ORB to Male BSPP Straight provides the connection conversion you need.
Select the correct size combination, confirm the thread standards, and make sure the required BSPP bonded seal is available for installation.
FAQs
What is a 7062 Male ORB to Male BSPP fitting?
The 7062 is a straight hydraulic adapter that connects a Male ORB connection to a Male BSPP connection.
What does BSPP mean?
BSPP means British Standard Pipe Parallel. BSPP uses parallel threads and requires an appropriate sealing method for the connection.
Is a bonded seal included with the 7062?
No. Gear House Hydraulics states that the bonded seals are not included with the 7062. The fitting is compatible with the 9900 Bonded Seal series.
What material is the 7062 made from?
The Gear House Hydraulics collection lists the 7062 in steel.
What sizes are available for the 7062?
The current collection lists sizes from 1/4" × 1/4" through 3/4" × 3/4", including several reducing combinations.
Can BSPP be used interchangeably with NPTF?
No. BSPP and NPTF use different thread geometries and should not be treated as interchangeable. Gear House Hydraulics notes the 55-degree BSPP thread flank angle compared with the 60-degree NPTF thread angle.
What is the purpose of the 7062 adapter?
It provides a direct connection between hydraulic components using Male ORB and Male BSPP connections, making it useful for international hydraulic equipment and mixed-thread systems.
How do I choose the correct 7062?
Confirm the ORB size, BSPP size, thread standard, and required sealing arrangement before ordering. Also verify that the fitting is appropriate for the pressure and operating conditions of the complete hydraulic system.
