British Standard Pipe (BSP) is a set of technical standards for screw threads that has been adopted internationally for interconnecting and sealing pipes and fittings by mating an external thread with an internal (female) thread.
The half-angle (between the taper surface and the axis of the pipe) is arctan(1 ⁄ 32) ≈ 1.7899° ≈ 1° 47′. The standard for Nominal Pipe Size (often abbreviated NPS, which should not be confused with the abbreviation NPS for the straight thread form standard) is loosely related to the inside diameter of Schedule 40 series of sizes.
Piping or tubing is usually inserted into fittings to make connections. Connectors are assigned a gender, abbreviated M or F. An example of this is a "3 ⁄ 4-inch female adapter NPT", which would have a corresponding male connection of the same size and thread standard (in this case also NPT).
Norway uses NOR fittings for attack hoses. They come in three sizes: NOR 1 (83 or 84 mm; 2 + 1 ⁄ 2-inch), NOR 2 (65 or 66 mm; 2"), and NOR 3 (50 or 55 mm; 1 + 1 ⁄ 2-inch). NOR 2 is mostly used in the maritime and offshore oil industry.
AN sizes range from -2 (dash two) to -32 in irregular steps, with each step equating to the OD (outside diameter) of the tubing in 1 ⁄ 16-inch increments. Therefore, a -8 AN size would be equal to 1 ⁄ 2 -inch OD tube.
Type K 1 ⁄ 2 inch, type L 1 ⁄ 2 inch, and type D 5 ⁄ 8 inch ACR all have the same outside diameter of 5 ⁄ 8 inch. In both the U.S. and Canada, copper pipe and fittings are sold in imperial units only as metric sizes are not manufactured for use in North America. [6]
