Straight pipe threads are mainly used for pipe connections, pipeline fittings and fittings. This thread covers diameters from 1/16 to 6" with the number of threads per 1" from 28 to 11.

The nominal diameter of a pipe thread is conventionally related to the internal diameter of the pipe. In terms of the ratio of pitches and diameters, pipe thread is a crushed inch thread according to OST 1260. Therefore, pipe thread at one time, before the standardization of small metric threads, was used not only for pipe connections, but also for fasteners, when there was a need to make threads with relatively in small steps, with large diameters. Pipe thread is a pan-European standard for pipes and pipe connections.

STRAIGHT PIPE THREAD DIMENSIONS
(GOST 6357-81)

The standard applies to cylindrical pipe threads used in cylindrical threaded connections, as well as in connections of internal cylindrical threads with external conical threads in accordance with GOST 6211-81.

Tolerances (according to GOST 6357-81) of the average thread diameter are established in two accuracy classes - A and B. Tolerances of the average thread diameter are total. Tolerances for diameters d 1 and D are not established.

It would seem that there is something complicated in the pipes? Connect and twist... But, if you are not a plumber or an engineer with a specialized education, then you will definitely have questions for answers to which you will have to go wherever you look. And most likely the first thing they look at is the Internet)

We have previously talked about the diameters of metal pipes in this material. Today we will try to clarify the threaded connections of pipes for various purposes. We tried not to clutter the article with definitions. Basic terminology contains GOST 11708-82 which everyone can familiarize themselves with.

Pipe cylindrical thread. GOST 6357 - 81

Direction: Left

Accuracy class: Class A (increased), Class B (normal)

Why in inches?

The inch size came to us from Western colleagues, since the requirements of the current in the post-Soviet space GOST and are formulated on the basis of thread B.S.W.(British Standard Whitworth or Whitworth carving). Joseph Whitworth (1803 - 1887), a design engineer and inventor, demonstrated the screw profile of the same name for detachable connections back in 1841 and positioned it as a universal, reliable and convenient standard.

This type of thread is used both in the pipes themselves and in the elements of pipe connections: locknuts, couplings, elbows, tees ( see picture above). In the profile section we see an isosceles triangle with an angle of 55 degrees and roundings at the tops and bottoms of the contour, which are made for high tightness of the connection.

Threading of threaded connections is carried out on sizes up to 6”. All larger pipes are fixed by welding to ensure a reliable connection and prevent rupture.

Symbol in the international standard

International: G

Japan: PF

UK: BSPP

The letter G and the bore diameter (internal Ø) of the pipe are indicated in inches. The outer diameter of the thread itself is not included in the designation.

Example:

G 1/2- cylindrical external pipe thread, internal pipe Ø 1/2"". The outer diameter of the pipe will be 20.995 mm, the number of steps over a length of 25.4 mm will be 14.

The accuracy class (A, B) and the direction of turns (LH) can also be indicated.

For example:

G 1 ½ - B- cylindrical pipe thread, internal Ø 1 ½ inches, accuracy class B.

G1 ½ LH- B- cylindrical pipe thread, internal Ø 1 ½ inches, accuracy class B, left.

The make-up length is indicated by the last one in mm: G 1 ½ -B-40.

For internal pipe cylindrical threads, only the Ø of the pipe for which the hole is intended will be indicated.

How to determine the pitch of an inch thread

I’ll give you a picture from the English-language Internet that clearly demonstrates the technique. Pipe threads are characterized not by the size between the tops of the profile, but by the number of turns per 1 inch along the axis of the thread. A regular tape measure or ruler can help. Apply it, measure one inch (25.4 mm) and visually count the number of steps.

In the picture with an example ( see above) threads - from English these are literally “threads of thread”. In this case there are 18 of them. by one inch.

It’s even easier if you have a thread gauge for inch threads lying around in your tool box. It is very convenient to take measurements, but it must be remembered that inch threads may differ in the apex angle of 55° and 60°.

NPTF National Pipe Tapered Fuel - national pipe tapered fuel thread.

NPTF - sealed thread. Compaction occurs due to compression of the threads.
Tapered fuel pipe threads are specified by ANSI/ASME B1.20.3

The NPTF fitting has a conical thread with a taper of 1:16 (cone angle φ=3°34’48").
The NPTF fitting is compatible with NPTF, NPSF or NPSM female threads.
NPTF threads are used in hydraulic systems, although the National Hydraulic Power Association (NFPA) does not recommend them for use in hydraulics.

On fittings with NPTF threads, to distinguish them from BSPT threads, a mark is usually placed on the edges of the hexagon

DESIGNATION

The thread designation must include: letters (R - for conical external threads, R c - for conical internal threads, R p - for cylindrical internal threads) and a designation of the thread size:
external pipe tapered thread - R 1 1/2
internal pipe conical thread - R with 1 1/2
internal pipe cylindrical thread - R p 1 1/2
left thread - R 1 1/2LH, R with 1 1/2LH, R p 1 1/2LH.

A threaded connection is designated by a fraction, for example Rc/R or Rp/R in the numerator of which the letter designation of the internal thread is indicated, and in the denominator - the external thread and the thread size.
For example: R with /R 1 1/4LH.
