AN AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD " PIPE THREADS, GENERAL PURPOSE (INCH) ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 - 1983 (REVISION AND REDESIGNATION OF ANS! 2.11968) SPONSORED AND PUBLISHED BY THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS United Engineering Center 345 East 47th Street New York, N. ¥. 10017 FOREWORD (This Foreword is not part of American Nations! Standerd, Pipe Threads, General Purpose (Inch) ANSWASME 81.20 1-1583) In 1973 American National Standards Committee B2, which had formerly been responsible for pipe thread standards, was absorbed by ANSI Standards Committee BI and reorganized as subcommittee 20. A com- plete rewrite of the B2.2-1968 standard on Dryseal Pipe Threads has been completed, with the product thread data in separate documents from the gaging standards for Dryseal Pipe Threads. The system of aum- bering, to include metric conversions, is as follows: ANSI BI.20.3-1976 Dryseal Pipe Threads (Inch) ANSI BI.20.4-1976 Dryseal Pipe Threads (Metric Translation) ANSI BI.20.5-1978 Gaging for Dryseal Pipe Threads (Inch) In preparation, BI.20.6M Gaging for Dryseal Pipe Threads (Metric Translation) ‘A complete rewrite of the B2.1-1968 standard on Pipe Threads (Except Dryseal) was then ‘The system of numbering, to include metric conversions, is as follows: indertaken. ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 Pipe Threads, General Purpose (Inch) In preparation, B1.20.2M Pipe Threads, General Purpose (Metric Translation) These standards, ANS/ASME: B1,20.1 and B1.20.2M, have product thread dimensions and gaging in the same document. Thread inspection specifies the use of L, taper thread plug and ring gages similar to B2.1-1968. In addition, emphasis is given to the requirement that all basic thread design dimensions are to bbe met within the specified tolerances. ‘The data in this Standard supersede those given in ANSI B2.1-1968. ‘The ANSYASME B1.20.1 was approved by ASME Standards Committce B1 on December 1, 1982 for publication as an official ANSI standard. ‘The proposed standard was submitted by standards committee BI to the Secretariat and the American National Standards Institute. It was approved and formally designated as an American National Standard on February 4, 1983, ASME STANDARDS COMMITTEE B1 ‘Standardization and Unification of Screw Threads (he foltowing i the roster ofthe Commitee at the time of approval of this Standard) OFFICERS . 4 Emanuel, Chalman i COMMITTEE PERSONNEL AEROSPACE INDUSTRIES ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA, INC, .

The types of pipe threads included in this Standard are designated by specifying in sequence the nominal pipe size,' number of threads per inch and the thread series symbol as follows: 3/8 ~ 18 NPT 1/8 - 27 NPSC 1/2-14NPTR 1/8 - 27 NPSM 1/8 -27 NPSL. 1-115 NPSH For left hand threads add LH to the designation, otherwise right hand threads will be understood. For example: 3/8 = 18 NPT- Li 1.22 Each of these letters in the symbols has a definite significance as follows: N = National (American) Standard P = Pipe © = Coupling S = Straight M = Mechanical H = Hose Coupling R = Railing Fittings ‘where it is necessary to use decimal notation for the size designation (as when inserting such in a computer or elec: ‘wonic accounting machine) the decimal equivalent of nom inal pipe size may be substituted for fractional pipe sizes 1.2.3 Coated or Plated Threads. The threaded product specifications covered in this Standard do not include an allowance for coatings or plating. 123 Seal 1.3.1 Where pressure-tight joints are required, itis. intended that taper pipe threads conforming to this, Standard be made up wrench-tight with a sealant, To prevent galling on certain piping materials such as stainless steels, the sealant usually contains a lubricant. 1.32 Pipe threads designed for pressure-tight joints that may be used without sealing compounds (Dryseal Threads) are covered in ANSI BI.20.3 (Inch) and ANSI BI.20.4 (Metric Translation). 1.4 Inspection A gaging method and tolerances are preseribed in this Standard to effect a functional inspection of the hhandtight Z, engagement threads. However, con- formance to this Standard requires that all basic design dimensions be met (within applicable toler- ances) including extension of the thread elements to provide for wrench-tight makeup. Therefore, addi tional methods of gaging may be employed to evaluate conformance to the basic design dimensions. When additional methods of gaging are employed, they shall be agreed upon by the supplier and the purchaser. 1.5 Appendix Useful and supplementary information which is not a part of this Standard is presented in the Appen- dix. Specifically, the Appendix gives Suggested Twist Drill Diameters for Drilled Hole Sizes for Pipe Thieads, 1.6 Related Standard Definitions of terms and symbols for thread di ‘mensions are given in ANSI BI.7, Nomenclature, Definitions and Letter Symbols for Screw Threads, op LE LOZE Le Uj WL XS FIG, 1 BASIC FORM OF AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD TAPER PIPE THREAD.

PIPE THREAD FORM 2.1 Thread Form The form of thread profile specified in this Stan- dard shall be known as the American National Stan: dard Pipe Thread Form. The relations as specified herein, for form of thread and general notation are shown in Fig. 1 22 Angle of Thread ‘The angle between the sides of the thread is 60 deg when measured in an axial plane. Th line biseot- ing this angle is perpendicular to the axis 2.3 Truncation and Thread Height ‘The height of the sharp V thread, H, is H=0.866025p = 0.866025/n The basic maximum depth of the truncated thread, ft (Gee Fig. 1), is based on factors enter- ing into the manufacture of cutting tools and the ‘making of tight joints. .800p = 0.800) The crest and root of pipe threads are truncated a ‘minimum of 0.033p. The maximum depth of trunca tion for the crest and root of these pipe threads will bbe found in Table 1. The crests and roots of the ex. temal and internal threads may be truncated either parallel to the pitch line or parallel to the axis. ‘The sketch in Table 2, giving a sectional view of this Standard thread form, represents the truncated thread form by a straight line. However, when closely examined, the crests and roots of commercially ‘manufactured pipe threads appear slightly rounded. ‘When crests and roots of threading tools or chasers lie within the limits shown in Table 1, the pipe threads of products produced by such means are acceptable on the basis of in-process control. 3 SPECIFICATION FOR GENERAL PURPOSE ‘TAPER PIPE THREADS, NPT 3.1 Taper Pipe Threads Threads made in accordance with these specifica tions consist of an external taper and an internal taper thread, to form the normal type of joint having, ‘general application on pipe and fittings. See Fig, 2. NPT taper pipe threads are intended to be made up wrench-tight and with a sealant whenever a pres- sure-tight joint is required.

This will vary depending on the method for producing the thread in conjunction with the elasticity, and/or ductility of the mating parts and the resultant conformance at final assembly, 3.1.1. Thread Designation and Notation, American National Standard Taper Pipe Threads are designated in accordance with 1.2.1 as follows: 3/8 - 18. NPT ‘Standard notation applicable to American National Standard Taper Pipe Threads is shown in Fig. 3. ‘3.1.2 Designation of Plated Threads. The product specifications of this Standard do not include an allowance for plating. If plating is desired, it may be necessary to modify the threads since the same final gaging requirements must be satisfied for plated and unplated parts. This may be emphasized by adding the words AFTER PLATING to the designation, For ‘manufacturing purposes, notes for plated taper pipe threads may specify the gage limits (turns or threads engagement) before plating followed by the words BEFORE PLATING. These should be followed by the standard gage limits (tums or threads engage ‘ment) after plating and the words AFTER PLATING. 3.1.3 Form of Thread. The form of the thread for American National Standard Taper Pipe Threads is that specified in 2.1. BAA Teper of Thread, The taper of the thread is 1 in 16 or 0.75 in,fft measured on the diameter and along the axis. ‘2.15 Diameter of Thread. The basic pitch diame- ters of the taper thread are determined by the follow- ‘ng formulas? based on the outside diameter of the Pipe and the pitch of the thread: B= D-(00SD + 1.1) 1/n =D~ (00D +1.1)p Ey = Ey +0.0625L, where D = outside diameter of pipe itch diameter of thread at end of pipe or small end of external thread E, = pitch diameter of thread at the gaging notch or large end of internal thread normal engagement by hand between exter- nal and internal threads n= threads per inch For the Yy-27 and Yy18 sizes, £ approx. =D ~ (0.0SD 9.2277 AN AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD PIPE THREADS, GENERAL PURPOSE (INCH) Pied tne A ANSH/ASME 81,20.1-1983 tin v (oniah dross (due to chamfer ‘on die) “Teper of thread 16 measured RS aX KH th Diam Handiaht Enssoement Nominat | 0.0.0f Pach ot | a Boing | Leagan? te an Pie | Pie | Thronivin. | ‘Threed |'ct extemal | E21? | ag, 3 . eto a Wr _| Taecd ea) | inch [ Theods | Uerd en 1 2 3 2 6 © >? 3 70 i te | sis | a o.0370¢| o27i8 | 0160 o2sits | 0261 0.28750 | Mas | oas7o4| 36351 | o1sts 037360 | 02639 | o'3s000 y oso | 18 o9sss6} 0.47739 | 0.2778 ais | 4018 | oso2so oss | 18 0.08856 | 0.61201 | 0.240 osz701 | 0.4078 | 0.63750 ¥ 0.840 “4 0.07143} 0.75843 | 0.320 0.77843 | 0.5337 |} 0.79179 eye a id asriea| oseres | 0339 sass? | 0.5457 | 0175 1 tas | is | onsese| 1.21363 | ooo 123863 | 0.6828 | 25630 1% 1.660 15 | osege| 155713 | 0.420 1558338 | 0.7068 | X60130 ih | 150 | is | assess] 179609 | 0.420 Vaz | 07235 158130 2 as | ou oasea6 | 226002 | 0.436 229627 | 0.7565 231600 a | aes | 8 o.2500| 2.71983 | oss2 aeons | 137s 2.79062 3 3500 | 011500] 334062 | 0.766 338850 | 12000 Sass 3% | 400 | 8 032500| 383750 | 821 3asssr | 12500 3.1362 a 4500 | 8 0.12500) 433438 | O84 a3ena | 13000 562 5 cae o.r2s00| 5.38073 | 0937 sasoa9 | 1.4063 sareea é seas | 8 0.12500) saasoo | 0358 630597 | 13125 654062 5 tes | 8 o.r2so0| s.a3aso | 1.063 #30003 | 17125 834082 0750 | 8 a.r2s00| 'sasar | 1210 rolsz09 | 119250 vo.ssse2 nao |e 4212500| 125328 | 1360 nasrrar | 21250 va.sese2 4000 | 8 0.12500] 13.7750 | 1562 1asr262 | 2.2500 sis62 e000 | 8 012500] 15.6250 | 12 isarsis | 24500 ts91se2 ve000 | 8 32506 | 1775000 | 2.000 1787500 | 26300 raise 2000 | & a.t2s00) 9.n3730 | 2.15 sarost | 2.8500 9.91562 2400 | 8 a.r2s00| 23.1250 | 2375 2aacons | 32500 poise NOTES: (1 The basie dimensions of the American National Standard Taper Pipe Thread are gin in inches to four or five decimal places, While this implies» greater degre of precision than is ordinarily attinad, these dimensions are the basis of gege dimensions and are go expressed forthe purpose of eliminating errors in computations, (2) iso (2) Aso pitch diameter at gaging notch (handtght (4) Also tenath of plug gage. , rath of thin ring gage end length from goging notch to small end of plug goa.

The basic length of the effective extemal taper thread L, is determined by the following formula based on the outside diameter Of the pipe and the pitch of the thread (0.80D + 6.8) In = (0.80D +6.8)p where D outside diameter of pipe threads per inch ‘This formula determines directly the length of effective thread which includes two usable threads slightly incomplete at the crest. 3.4.7 Engagement Between External and Internal Taper Threads. The normal length of engagement between external and internal taper threads when Screwed together handtight is shown in col. 6, Table 2. This length is controlled by the construction and use of the gages. It is recognized that in special applications, such as flanges for high pressure work, longer thread engagement is used, in which case the pitch diameter (dimension E , Table 2) is maintained and the pitch diameter Eo at the end of the pipe is proportionately smaller. 3.1.8 Basic Dimensions. The basic dimensions of taper pipe threads, derived from the above specifica- tions, are given in Table 2. All dimensions are given in inches unless otherwise specified. 3.2 Tolerances 3.2.1 Manufacturing Tolerance on Product. The maximum allowable deviation in the commercial product is one tur large or small from gages made to, the basic dimensions, See 8.2 and 8.3. 3.22 Tolerances on Thread Elements, The permis- sible deviations in thread elements are given in Table 3. This table is a guide for establishing limits of the thread elements of taps, dies, arid thread chasers. Conformance to these limits may be required on product threads, in which case specifications shall equire control and checking of thread elements, ‘On pipe fittings and valves (not steel or high grade alloys used in critical services) for steam pressures 300 tb and below, itis intended that plug and ring age practices as established in this Standard be used ANSV/ASME B1.20.1-1983 in conjunction with tooling control of thread cle- ments, eg., taps and dies, to provide satisfactory control of functional size. Therefore, no tolerances con thread elements have been established for this class. For service conditions, where more exact checks fare required, procedures have been developed by industry to supplement the standard plug and ring gage method of gaging, 4 SPECIFICATIONS FOR INTERNAL STRAIGHT ‘THREADS IN PIPE COUPLINGS, NPSC 4.1. Straight Pipe Threads in Pipe Couplings ‘Threads in pipe couplings made in accordance with these specifications are straight (parallel) threads of the same thread form as the American National Standard Taper Pipe Thread specified in 2.1. They are used to form pressure-tight joints when assembled with an American National Standard external taper pipe thread and made up wrench-tight with lubricant or sealant, 4.1.1 Thread Designation. The American National Standard Coupling Straight Pipe Threads are desig- nated in accordance with 1.2.1 as follows: 1/8 -27 NPSC 4.1.2 Dimensions and Limits of Size. The dimen- sions and pitch diameter limits of size are specified in Table 4. The pitch diameter limits of size correspond to one and one-half turns large or small of the stan- dard taper pipe thread.

For dimensions and tolerances, see ANSI B2.4. 7 GAGES AND GAGE TOLERANCES FOR AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD PIPE THREADS 7.1. Design of Gages Gages for American National Standard Pipe ‘Threads provide a functional check and are of the standard type as described below. Gages should con: form to the designs recommended in ANSI Standard 47.1, Gage Blanks. 7.1.4 Standard Type Gages. A set of standard or basic type gages consists ofa taper-threaded plug gage and a taper-thteaded ring gage. See Figs. 4 and 5. ‘The plug gages are made to dimensions given in Table 8 with a gaging notch located a distance Ly from the small end. The £, ring gage has a length equal to dimension Ly. The roots of the threads on these szages shall clear 0.0381 width. A sharp V or under- cut clearance is acceptable, The crests are to be truncated an amount equal to 0.140p for 27 threads per inch (tpi), 0.109p for 18 tpi, and 0.100p for 14 ‘pi, L1-1/2 tpi and 8 tpi threads (see Fig, 5). In locat- ing the basic gaging notch, the plane of the notch should intersect the crest of the gage thread. ‘The ring gage shall be fitted to the plug so that, when assembled handtight, the gaging notch of the plug gage will be flush with the large end face of the ring gage within tolerances as given in Table 9. Partial end threads shall be removed on both ends of the ring gage and on the smell end of the plug gage to fullform profile in order to avoid possible seating error from bent or malformed feathered edge. 7.1.2 Marking of Gages. Each gage shall be marked s0 as to indicate clearly the nominal size of pipe, 16 [ANSI/ASME 81.20.1-1989, threads per inch, and the proper thread series designa- tion as given in the respective section ofthis Standard. 7.2 Classes of Gages Gages of the following types may be used to com. pletely cover gage requirements (@) master gages used to check working gages. (©) working gages used to check threads during ‘manufacture and for conformance inspection, 7.2.4 Master Gages.

It is constructed of hardened steel with a gaging notch located a distance Ly (Table 2) from the small end ‘The ring gage has a length equal to dimension Ly specified in Table 8. This ring is fitted to its mating plug - seating flush at the notch within + 0.002 in for sizes 1/16 through 2, within £ 0.003 in. for sizes, 2-1/2 through 12, and within + 0.005 in. for sizes 14 and larger, The roots of the threads on these ring gages shall clear 2 0.0381p flat or may be undercut beyond a sharp V. The crests of the plug and ring kage are truncated 0.100p. The set of master gages is used for checking working gages (see 7.3.2). A supplementary check by optical means should be ‘made of flank angle and form. CAUTION: It should be understood that only a specifically matched set of masters (L4, plug and L ring) can be expected to mate with each other within the tolerance specified. There are many characteristics, or deviations in gage elements that may combine to cause a significant standoff difference between ‘aster gages which are not specifically matched. 7.2.2 Working Gages. Each set of working gages consists of an L, taper threaded plug goge and an L taper threaded ring gage and is used for checking the product. These gages are made of hardened steel ‘or equivalent material to dimensions given in Table 8. (See 7.3.2 for tolerance.) In locating the basic notch of the plug gage the plane of the notch should inter- sect the erest of the thread. It is to be noted that these gages are truncated at the crest so that they bear only on the flanks of the thread. Thus, although they do not check the crest oF root truncations specified in Table 1, they are a satisfactory functional check for the general run of product.

For this inspection, optics or optical projection is suggested. 7.3 Gage Tolerances In the manufacture of gages, variations from basic dimensions are unavoidable, Furthermore, gages will wear in use. In order to fix the maximum allowable variations of gages, tolerances have been established. See Table 9 and 7.3.2. 7.3.1 Master Gage Tolerances. The set of master gages should be made to the basic dimensions as accurately as possible, but in no case shall the eum- lative deviation exceed one-half of the total eum- ulative tolerance specified in cols. 13 and 14 of Table 9. Each master gage should be accompanied by 2 record of the measurements of all elements of the thread and the standoff of master plug to master fing (large end of ring gage to basic notch of plug age). 7.3.2 Working Gage Tolerances, All gages applied to the product thread, whether in manufacture or inspection, are designated as working gages. All work- ing gages should be made to the basic dimensions specified in Table 8 and within tolerances specified in Table 9. The maximum wear on a working gage shall not be more than the equivalent of one-quarter tum from its original dimensions. 7.4 Relation of Lead and Angle Deviations to Piteh Diameter Tolerances of Gages When it is necessary to compute from measure: ments the decimal part of a turn that a gage varies from the basic dimensions, Tables 10 and 11 should be used. Table 10 gives the correction in diameter for angle deviations and Table 11 gives the correction in diameter for lead deviations. These corrections are always added to the pitch diameter in tho case of external threads and subtracted in the case of internal threads regardless of whether the lead or angle devia tions are either plus or minus. ‘The diameter equivalent for lead and sngle devia tions plus the pitch diameter deviation multiplied by 16 gives the longitudinal deviation from basic at the gaging notch. This longitudinal deviation divided by the pitch equals the decimal part of a turn that the ‘gage varies from basic at the gaging notch. ANSW/ASME B1.20.1-1983 8 GAGING OF TAPER PIPE THREADS 8.1. Gaging External Tapor Threads In gaging external taper threads, the /., ring gege, Fig, 6, is screwed handtight on the pipe or external thread. The thread is within the permissible tolerance when the gaging face of the working ring gage is not ‘more than one turn, large or small, from being flush with the end of the thread, as indicated in Fig. 6. 8.2 Gaging Internal Taper Threads In gaging internal taper threads, the J. plug gage, Fig, 4, is screwed handtight into the fitting or coup- ling. The thread is within the permissible tolerance when the gaging notch of the working plug gage is not more than 1 turn, large or small, from being Mush, with the end of the thread, as indicated in Fig. 7. 8.3 Gaging Practice 8.3.1 Procautions. In gaging pipe threads it is ‘common practice to tap or rap the part to assure proper seating of the gage in or on the product thread. However, it is first necessary to clean both the gage and the product threads so that they are feee of chips, burs, abrasives, or other foreign materials. 8.3.2 Supplemental Gaging. Gaging of both in- ternal and external threads by use of the Z plug and ring gages, illustrated by Figs. 6 and 7, serves to assure conformance to the L. elements of the design dimensions, However, conformance to this Standard requires that all basic design dimensions be met within applicable tolerances including extension of the thread clements to provide for wrench-tight make- up. Therefore, in controlling manufacturing practices for as otherwise required, additional methods of measuring or gaging may be employed to supplement L, gaging, 8.4 Gaging Chamfered, Countersunk, or Recessed Threads ‘The reference point for gaging internal product threads depends upon the chamfer diameter, When the internal chamfer diameter exceeds the major diameter of the intemal thread, the reference point is the last thread seratch on the chamfer cone. See Fig. 88. Otherwise, when the internal chamfer diameter does not exceed the major diameter of the internal thread, the reference point is the end of the [AN AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD ANSITASME 81.20.1-198 PIPE THREADS, GENERAL PURPOSE INCH) ooo + pue ran ananet £0 ‘snenautZ 0 #8218 30 L00'0 - Pur 000'0 + #4 j #08 20} 2000'S wynmn aubrpueY parqusse uaye Syd 8 ‘S810N TURNED seo [iceovo | sozove | oxooa Jozooe | si000 | o1ov0 | ov ‘s000'0 |
