Nominal Pipe Size (NPS) is a North American set of standard sizes for pipes used for high or low pressures and temperatures. [1] " Nominal" refers to pipe in non-specific terms and identifies the diameter of the hole with a non-dimensional number (for example – 2-inch nominal steel pipe" consists of many varieties of steel pipe with the only criterion being a 2.375-inch (60.3 mm) outside ...
In 1970, O.P. Jindal founded a mini steel plant named Jindal Strips Limited at Hisar. [10] [8] [4] It started manufacturing hot rolled carbon steel coils, plates, slabs and blooms. It was the beginning of the story for Jindal Stainless. Over the years, the company expanded its capacity at Hisar. In 2002, Jindal Strips was restructured as Jindal ...
A tube and pipe may be specified by standard pipe size designations, e.g., nominal pipe size, or by nominal outside or inside diameter and/or wall thickness. The actual dimensions of pipe are usually not the nominal dimensions: A 1-inch pipe will not actually measure 1 inch in either outside or inside diameter, whereas many types of tubing are ...
Jindal Institute of Power Technology (JIPT) JIPT was established to develop a pool of technically trained power plant professionals for power utilities in India and abroad. The course authorizes the pass-outs to operate or undertake maintenance of any part or whole of generating stations of capacity 100 MW & above together with the associated ...
For pipe sizes of NPS 14 inch (DN 350) and greater the NPS size is the actual diameter in inches and the DN size is equal to NPS times 25 (not 25.4) rounded to a convenient multiple of 50. For example, NPS 14 has an OD of 14 inches or 355.60 millimetres, and is equivalent to DN 350.
Because of the pipe wall thickness of Schedule pipe, the actual diameter of the NPT threads is larger than the Nominal Pipe Size diameter, and considerably so for small sizes. Pipe of a given size in a different Schedule than Schedule 40 provides a different wall thickness while maintaining the same outside diameter and thread profile as ...
A reducer reduces the pipe size from a larger to a smaller bore (inner diameter). Alternatively, reducer may refer to any fitting which causes a change in pipe diameter. [15] This change may be intended to meet hydraulic flow requirements of the system or adapt to existing piping of a different size. The reduction length is usually equal to the ...
the thread size; Threads are normally right-hand. For left-hand threads, the letters, LH, are appended. Example: Pipe thread EN 10226 Rp 2 + 1 ⁄ 2. The terminology for the use of G and R originated from Germany (G for gas, as it was originally designed for use on gas pipes; R for rohr, meaning pipe.)
