A Guide to Straight Adaptors and Extensions for Industrial Lubrication Systems
The proper selection of connectors, adaptors, and extensions in the industrial lubrication system will determine the ease with which grease will reach every critical component. Fat Adder has a complete series of straight adaptors and extensions specifically designed to match both 1/8 BSP and 1/4 BSP connections to allow one to easily set up safe, leak-proof configurations in one's grease line system.
This blog post will explain in detail the types of straight adaptors and extensions, their applications, and how you can optimize your lubrication system by selecting the right components.
Why Straight Adaptors and Extensions Matter for Lubrication Systems
In any lubrication system, strong connections across hoses, fittings, and grease points are very critical. Straight adaptors and extensions cater for customization of the system in reaching hitherto inaccessible areas with reduced friction in order to keep machinery performance at the best possible level. With fitting into varied thread sizes and materials, these adapters and extensions provide a reliable, leak-free connection.
Key Benefits:
Variety Some of the straight adaptors are manufactured from a wide array of sizes and types, such as brass and stainless steel, to be applied more widely to various system requirements. Personalization Extensions are made available to allow for flexible routing of grease to reach obscure components and to make sure that each point is well lubricated. Reliability Fat Adder's adaptors and extensions have superior construction and are made with top-notch materials for industrial use. Types of Straight Adaptors from Fat Adder
The straight adaptors provided by Fat Adder are available in several variations of BSP, NPT, and UNEF threads. Most adaptors would be utilized to connect the components when they don't have compatible threads due to either material or size.

AT18X14BSP: Straight adapter 1/8 BSP male x 1/4 BSP female.
These adapters offer easy transition between various thread sizes with ease and convenience in interfacing different components within a system.
Straight Extensions for Grease Line Systems
Most lubrication systems require extensions to reach longer distances toward the grease point. Fat Adder provides various lengths and options of thread sizes that allow straight extensions, which offer maximum flexibility during the design of a system.
Metric Straight Extensions (Male x Female):
ATM6XM6-20: Straight extension M6 male x M6 female, 20mm long.
ATM8XM8-62.5: Straight extension M8 male x M8 female, 62.5mm long.
ATM10M10-50: Straight extension M10 male x M10 female, 50mm long.
1/8 BSP STRAIGHT EXTENSIONS
AT18X18BSP18: Straight extension 1/8 BSP male x 1/8 BSP female, 18mm long.
AT18X18BSP35SS: Stainless steel straight extension 1/8 BSP male x 1/8 BSP female, 35mm long.
AT18X18BSP111: Straight extension 1/8 BSP male x 1/8 BSP female, 111mm long.
AT18X18BSP187: Straight extension 1/8 BSP male x 1/8 BSP female, 187mm long.
1/4 BSP Straight Extensions:
AT14X14BSP25: Straight extension 1/4 BSP male x 1/4 BSP female, 25mm long.
AT14X14BSP50: Straight extension 1/4 BSP male x 1/4 BSP female, 50mm long.
AT14X14BSP104: Straight extension 1/4 BSP male x 1/4 BSP female, 104mm long.
These extensions allow for the positions of the grease point to be placed at convenient points in order to maintain them and, therefore, lubricate all critical areas in the machinery.
When to Use Brass vs. Stainless Steel Adaptors and Extensions
When selecting straight adaptors and extensions, keep in mind what material will work best for your application. Brass adaptors are normally lower in price and suitable for general applications, whereas stainless steel adaptors offer greater corrosion resistance, which is ideal for harsh or corrosive environments.
Brass: For the majority of industrial applications where corrosion is not an issue.
Stainless Steel: Most suitable for highly humid environments, exposure to chemicals, or when the major concern is long life expectancy.
