I have a device (which provides low pressure air flow) that has a male

fastened by a 1" BSP nut.

I want to move this out so that it joins via a swept bend something less
than 90 degree (70 or 80 would suffice) or 110 degree if looking at the
bend angle.

I need 1" BSP parallel male thread on one end and 1" BSp parallel female
on the other.
something like:

My thought are I take a piece of 28mm copper pipe, bend to suitable radius.
On one end solder a 28mm x 1" BSP male endfeed

On the other a 28mm x 1" BSP Female endfeed

Anybody know of a neater way ?

Needs to be copper/brass (not iron)


All available but you need to search for bronze, (appearance indistiguishable from brass but more corrosion resistant.
Pricey!

You could be right but I didn't see anything in the OP post to suggest
that bronze was essential instead of brass. Not a marine application, is it?
