National Pipe Taper Fuel (NPTF, also called Dryseal American National Standard Taper Pipe Thread, defined by ASME B1.20.3) is designed to provide a more leak-free seal without the use of PTFE tape (often referred to by the popular brand name "Teflon") or another sealant compound. NPTF threads have the same basic shape but with crest and root ...
The standard designation for a UTS thread is a number indicating the nominal (major) diameter of the thread, followed by the pitch measured in threads per inch.For diameters smaller than 1 / 4 inch, the diameter is indicated by an integer number defined in the standard; for all other diameters, the inch figure is given.
A screw thread is an inclined plane wrapped around a cylinder or cone in the form of a helix, with the former being called a straight thread and the latter called a tapered thread. More screw threads are produced each year than any other machine element. [1] Threads are generally produced according to one of the many standards of thread systems.
United States Standard thread (USS thread), also known as Sellers Standard thread, [1] Franklin Institute thread [1] and American Standard thread, [2] is a standard for inch based threaded fasteners and washers. [3] The USS standard is no longer supported. It, together with the SAE fastener standard, was incorporated into the Unified Thread ...
The old national standard is compatible with the newer unified standard, but is long out of date. [10] This unified standard includes: Unified Coarse (UNC), the successor to the obsolete National Coarse (NC) thread. Unified Fine (UNF), the successor to the obsolete National Fine (NF) thread. Unified Extra Fine (UNEF) Unified Special (UNS)
British Standard Whitworth (BSW) is an imperial-unit-based screw thread standard, devised and specified by Joseph Whitworth in 1841 and later adopted as a British Standard. It was the world's first national screw thread standard, and is the basis for many other standards, such as BSF , BSP , BSCon , and BSCopper .
National Screw Thread Commission updates its small hose screw couplings. Covers "National Fire-Hose Coupling Thread Form" (NFHCT) recommended by NFPA "previously known as National Standard Hose Coupling Thread" and garden hoses (3/4 in.--11 1/2 threads per inch). Small hose couplings (0.5 to 2") use "National Form of Thread".
