Half Coupling Configuration
Female NPT Opening
The threaded opening accepts compatible male-threaded pipe or fittings.
Compact Forged Body
The shortened coupling body provides a compact connection point where a full-length coupling is not required.
Attachment Side
The opposite side is intended for incorporation into the appropriate fabricated piping, tank, vessel, or equipment assembly.
Construction Details
These 6000# threaded half couplings are manufactured from normalized ASME SA105N forged carbon steel for demanding applications requiring strength, durability, and dimensional consistency.
Forged steel fitting dimensions conform to ASME B16.11, while the precision-machined female NPT threaded connection conforms to ASME B1.20.1 for compatibility with suitable male-threaded piping components.
Why Choose a Forged Steel Threaded Half Coupling?
Compact Threaded Connection
- Provides one female NPT connection
- Useful for branch and fabricated connections
- Suitable for tank, vessel, and equipment assemblies
- More compact than a full coupling
- Designed for compatible 6000# threaded systems
Forged Steel Construction
- Manufactured from forged carbon steel
- Material conforms to ASME SA105N
- Normalized material condition
- Dimensions conform to ASME B16.11
- Manufactured in an ISO-certified facility
Half Coupling vs. Full Coupling
Half Coupling
A half coupling provides one female-threaded connection and is typically incorporated into a fabricated piping, tank, vessel, or equipment assembly.
Full Coupling
A full coupling provides female-threaded connections on both ends and is designed to join two compatible male-threaded pipe sections in a straight run.
Typical Applications
Industrial & Mechanical Piping
- Industrial process piping
- Mechanical piping systems
- Plant utility piping
- Power generation piping
- Fabricated piping assemblies
Fabricated Connections
- Tank connections

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 6000# forged steel threaded half coupling?
It is a compact forged steel fitting with one female NPT connection designed for incorporation into compatible fabricated piping, branch, tank, vessel, or equipment connections.
What type of connection does this half coupling use?
This fitting uses a female NPT threaded connection.
How is a half coupling different from a full coupling?
A half coupling provides one threaded connection, while a full coupling provides female-threaded connections on both ends for joining two pipe sections.
Where are threaded half couplings commonly used?
They are commonly used in fabricated piping assemblies, branch connections, tanks, vessels, and equipment where a compact female-threaded connection point is needed.
