1/2-20 RH Tube End - 1in x .058in

The 1/2-20 RH Tube End is a precision weld-on threaded coupling designed for high-performance tube and pipe assembly work in industrial, automotive, and tactical applications. This right-hand female thread fitting accepts 1-inch OD tubing with a 0.058-inch wall thickness, making it ideal for custom fabrication projects where reliable, permanent connections are non-negotiable. Whether you're building custom exhaust systems, hydraulic lines, or structural assemblies, this tube end provides the threaded interface needed to join components without relying on compression fittings or slip connections.

Manufactured from chromoly steel in natural (unplated) finish, the 1/2-20 RH Tube End delivers strength and durability in demanding environments. The 1/2-20 right-hand thread specification ensures compatibility with standard 1/2-inch diameter fasteners, while the weld-on design allows permanent integration into your assembly via full-penetration welding for maximum structural integrity. Chromoly's superior tensile strength and heat resistance compared to mild steel make it the material choice for applications subject to vibration, pressure cycling, or elevated temperatures. The compact 1.4 x 1.15 x 3.85-inch footprint and modest 0.18-pound weight facilitate installation in tight spaces without adding unnecessary mass.

Fabricators, custom builders, and OEM suppliers benefit most from this tube end when designing systems that demand precision thread alignment and permanent fastening without leakage risk. Installation requires competent welding equipment and technique to ensure the weld collar bonds fully to your tube's OD; proper fit-up and heat control prevent distortion and thread damage. Verify your tubing OD and wall thickness match the 1-inch and 0.058-inch specifications before ordering, and confirm that right-hand threading aligns with your assembly's thread direction. This single-unit offering is ideal for prototype development, one-off repairs, or low-volume production runs.
