How do you measure for compression fittings?

To measure a threaded fitting, measure the thread diameter at the widest point across the threads. For a non-threaded fitting, measure the actual insert opening diameter or tube being inserted into the compression sleeve.

What is a compression spanner?

This type of spanner is used to tighten compression nuts when creating a compression fitting either between two pieces of pipe or between a pipe and a shut off valve. A compression fitting is used to connect two pieces of pipe, normally in small or awkward areas, where welding the pipes could be difficult or dangerous.

Will 22mm compression fitting on 3/4 pipe?

You can join modern 15mm pipe to 1/2 inch imperial and 28mm to 1 inch using standard metric compression fittings, but to connect 22mm pipe to 3/4 inch you'll need a 22mm compression fitting with a special oversize olive. For soldered joints, there are metric/imperial connectors in the relevant sizes.

Which is bigger 22mm or 3 4?

3/4 pipe is significantly smaller than 22mm.

How do I know my BSP thread size?

The easiest way is to count the thread crests over a shorter length, say 1/4", and simply multiply it by 4. For example, if you count 3.5 thread crests over 1/4": 3.5 x 4 = 14 threads per inch. Take this measurement and cross-reference it to your thread size in the chart below.
