I am looking for a type of coupling, which may or may not exist, that essentially has male NPT threads on one side and Female NPSM threads on the other. All couplings of this nature have a swivel feature, such as the one shown here. I'm looking for the same coupling without a swivel feature. Does what I'm looking for exist or would I more than likely have to custom make one? Are there other ways of making this connection such as using "NPSM-compatible" couplings or including additional components?

Thanks,
David
 
Exactly like this, however with NPSM stlye threads as opposed to NPT threads.
 
NPSM is a straight thread pipe designation. The swivel has NPSM because the seal occurs with the pipe id chamfer and a cone feature inside the swivel on the fitting body.
