  1. Adaptor

    An adaptor joins specified interfaces. Match both full thread designations and the required sealing and engagement.

  2. Reducer

    The smaller exit accepts a smaller entry interface. Verify the direction of reduction and both usable thread lengths.

  3. Enlarger

    The accessory provides a larger receiving interface from a smaller mounting interface. Check space and assembly limits.

  4. Blanking plug

    A closure blocks an unused opening. Its threads, face seal and complete assembly rating must match the enclosure.

  5. WasherThis term

    The flat annular part supports its specified sealing, spacing or bonding function. Washers with similar shapes are not interchangeable.

  6. Shroud

    The cover protects the exterior fitting as specified. A shroud alone does not establish the entry’s ingress rating.

Changing the entry interface, closing an unused hole, sealing a face and covering an exterior fitting are separate tasks. Select the accessory for the required function.

Conceptual sections and outlines. Thread conversion, closure, bonding and ingress performance depend on the installed accessory combination.
