BSP is British Std Pipe

AN is a military specification fitting, AN fittings are a flare fitting, using 37° flare
They are similar to other 37° flared fittings, such as JIC fittings, which is their industrial variant

M25 is metric 25 threads, and the p1.5 is thread pitch

AN -10 is equal to 5/8 tube

So none of them work together? ie a AN -10 female fitting wont go onto M25 by P1.5?

Thanks for the reply

JIC and AN will work together, but not really recommended because of tolerances

the m25 and p1.5 is thread type, metric and imperial threads cannot be mixed

what is it your trying to sort out

this company does BSP to AN adaptors

Pegasus - BSP Female to AN Male Adapter

as do a few others...Think Automotive for example which are UK based but a little more expensive

Think Automotive Ltd On line shop

Well basically ive finally found a sandwich plate, which has oil cooler fittings and gauge taps all in one, because i dont want an oil filter relocation kit (cost mainly).

This sandwich plate has M25 P1.5 oil cooler male threads.
And the mocal cooler i want to buy has AN -10 fittings, so i was just wondering if people just use different names for the same fittings.

So really i just need to get the hose made up with metric one end, and AN -10 the other
