2. Nominal Pipe Size - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nominal_Pipe_Size

   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 ...

3. National pipe thread - Wikipedia

   MIP is an abbreviation for male iron pipe, and FIP is an abbreviation for female iron pipe. [2] Outside North America, some US pipe thread sizes are widely used, as well as many British Standard Pipe threads and ISO 7–1, 7–2, 228–1, and 228-2 threads.

4. Preferred metric sizes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preferred_metric_sizes

   Nominal diameter, abbreviated DN (diamètre nominal/Durchmesser nach Norm), is the designation system specified by ISO 6708 for specifying the diameter of trade sizes of metric pipework components, and is the metric equivalent to Nominal Pipe Size. [9]

5. Real versus nominal value (philosophy) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_versus_nominal_value...

   The metric size is larger than the imperial size. For example, both 1 ⁄ 2 inch and 15 millimetres (0.59 in) copper pipe is actually the same pipe which has a nominal internal diameter of 1 ⁄ 2 an inch and a nominal external diameter of 15 millimetres [6] (diameter is always internal in the imperial measurement system and always external in ...

6. Flange - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flange

   Pipe flanges that are made to standards called out by ASME B16.5 or ASME B16.47, and MSS SP-44. They are typically made from forged materials and have machined surfaces. ASME B16.5 refers to nominal pipe sizes (NPS) from 1 ⁄ 2" to 24". B16.47 covers NPSs from 26" to 60".

7. Iron pipe size - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_pipe_size

   During the IPS period, pipes were cast in halves and welded together, and pipe sizes referred to the inside diameters. [1] The inside diameters under IPS were roughly the same as the more modern Ductile Iron Pipe Standard (DIPS) and Nominal Pipe Size (NPS) Standards, and some of the wall thicknesses were also retained with a different ...
