CPVC Pipework with BSP threads?
Discussion
Bit of a long shot but does anyone know of any suppliers that have ranges of CPVC pipework with BSP Connections?
Ideally I would like a composite union 1 1/2" Female Threaded (Brass or Stainless) to a Plain CPVC Socket.
Generally the CPVC stuff we use is all solvent welded stuff but comes from the states so all the treads are NPT.
I can get adaptor nipples etc but it makes the pipework look sloppy.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

I have a Pipe Center price guide from a couple of years ago, it has various makes in it.
Durapipe do composite unions in PVC and ABS, but don't list any in CPVC.
Don't know if you could mix PVC/ABS with the CPVC, or just use ABS or PVC instead of CPVC?
Might be worth a call to Durapipe/ Astore/ Tecno Plastic/ George Fishcer, they all have ABS and PVC stocks and some might do CPVC.

yeah thats the prob, it needs to be cPVC as its heated water so upvc will melt.
Its so frustrating as there are tons of upvc options just very few in cpvc and even less in imperial. IPS have a "firemaster" range that may work but i'm waiting to hear back if it can be solvent welded with standard cpvc
