Is the Nickel-Plated Brass T-Fitting "T" with Male BSPT and 2x Female BSP, Type A12 suitable for use with compressed air up to 60 bar?

Yes. The Nickel-Plated Brass T-Fitting "T" with Male BSPT and 2x Female BSP, Type A12 is suitable for use with compressed air up to 60 bar. It is manufactured from nickel-plated brass for corrosion resistance and strength, features two internal BSP and one external BSPT thread (requiring appropriate sealing: Teflon tape/sealant for tapered threads and aluminum/copper washers for cylindrical threads), and is specified with a working pressure up to 60 bar, making it appropriate for demanding pneumatic applications when correctly installed and sealed.

Can the Nickel-Plated Brass T-Fitting "T" with Male BSPT and 2x Female BSP, Type A12 be used with different thread sealants like anaerobic sealant instead of PTFE tape?

Yes — the Nickel-Plated Brass T-Fitting "T" with Male BSPT and 2x Female BSP, Type A12 can be used with different thread sealants, including anaerobic sealants, but selection must match thread type and application. Key points: - The Male BSPT (tapered) thread is intended to seal with Teflon (PTFE) tape or liquid sealants; anaerobic sealants can work if formulated for tapered metal threads and compatible with brass. - The two Female BSP (parallel/cylindrical) threads generally rely on a mechanical seal (aluminum or copper washers) rather than thread sealant. If you apply sealant, ensure it’s suitable for parallel BSP fittings and does not prevent proper washer seating. - Check chemical compatibility: some anaerobic sealants cure poorly on plated/brass surfaces or may corrode nickel plating. Use products specified for brass and plated components. - Pressure and temperature: verify the sealant’s rated pressure and temperature meet the Type A12’s operating conditions (up to 60 bar). - Service media: confirm compatibility with the gas or fluid in the system (e.g., air, oils, fuels). - Installation practice: follow manufacturer cure times and avoid excess sealant that could contaminate the pneumatic system. Recommendation: For tapered BSPT use a sealant specified for metal taper threads (PTFE tape or a thread sealant compatible with brass). For parallel BSP ports, retain the recommended aluminum/copper washers; only use sealants if the product guidance permits.
