   This fitting is used with 1 ⁄ 2-inch, 5 ⁄ 8-inch, and 3 ⁄ 4-inch hoses. [4] [5] In other countries, a British Standard Pipe (BSP) thread is used, which is 3 ⁄ 4 inch (19 mm) and 14 TPI (male part outside diameter is 26.441 mm or 1.04 in). The GHT and BSP standards are not compatible, and attempting to connect a GHT hose to a BSP fitting ...

   Consequently, a 1-inch (25 mm) copper pipe had a 1 + 1 ⁄ 8-inch (28.58 mm) outside diameter. The outside diameter was the important dimension for mating with fittings. The wall thickness on modern copper is usually thinner than 1 ⁄ 16-inch (1.6 mm), so the internal diameter is only "nominal" rather than a controlling dimension. [13]
