The threaded ends are 1/2" BSP parallel thread The pipes use Rotherham fittings (I think that's what they're called)
Some were made with the wire loops and later with the discs.
The 2 runs of copper pipe are half inch o.d and they sweat into a casting with the fittings (screwed??) into the bottom that the pipes connect to.
The outer fitting sits lower than the inner. I will post some photos later.
