Tapered thread: NPT & BSPT

NPT = National Pipe Taper

NPT is a U.S. standard for tapered threads widely used on pipes and fittings for over 100 years.

NPT = US & Canada, oil & gas

NPT = expensive (eg. SS304 Reducing Socket 1" to 1/2 inch female thread, RM 48)




BSPT = British Standard Pipe Taper

BSPT is common in Malaysia, Australia and the commonwealth countries, especially ball valve, nipple and pressure gauge

BSPT = cheapest (eg. SS304 Reducing Socket 1" to 1/2 inch female thread, RM 14)


NPT thread is angled at 60 degrees while 

BSPT is angled at 55 degree.


NPT & BSPT for 1/2 inch and 3/4 inch is almost same.


Remark: Never screw NPT into BSPT together
