What is the pitch of BSP thread?
55 degree
BSP threads have rounded valleys and troughs with a 55 degree pitch (this is known as Whitworth type). There are two types of BSP threads; Tapered (BSPT) and parallel (BSPP).
What size is BSPT 1 8?
British Standard Pipe Thread (BSPT)
| BSP Thread Size | Outside Diameter mm / inch | TPI |
|---|---|---|
| 1/16 Inch BSP | 7.7 mm / 0.304″ | 28 |
| 1/8 Inch BSP | 9.7 mm / 0.383″ | 28 |
| 1/4 Inch BSP | 13.16 mm / 0.518″ | 19 |
| 3/8 Inch BSP | 16.66 mm / 0.656″ | 19 |
How do you calculate BSP thread pitch?
The easiest way is to count the thread crests over a shorter length, say 1/4″, and simply multiply it by 4. For example, if you count 3.5 thread crests over 1/4″: 3.5 x 4 = 14 threads per inch. Take this measurement and cross-reference it to your thread size in the chart below.
What is the difference between 1/8 BSP and 1/8 NPT?
The difference between NPT vs. With NPT, the peaks and valleys of the threads are flat. In BSP, they are rounded. Secondly, the NPT angle of the thread is 60 degrees and the BSP angle is 55 degrees.
What is g1 thread?
BSPT (R/Rp)
| Thread size (inch) | Major diameter (mm) | Minor diameter (mm) |
|---|---|---|
| G 1/2″ | 20,955 | 18,631 |
| G 3/4″ | 26,441 | 24,117 |
| G 1″ | 33,249 | 30,291 |
| G 2″ | 59,614 | 56,656 |
What is the drill size for 1/8 BSP?
BSPP / BSPT
| SIZE | TPI | TAP DRILL |
|---|---|---|
| 1/8″ | 28 | 8.70 |
| 1/4″ | 19 | 11.60 |
| 3/8″ | 19 | 15.00 |

What is the difference between BSP and BSPF?
The British Standard Pipe Parallel (BSPP) screw thread was changed to British Standard Pipe Fitting (BSPF) screw thread to remove the confusion between the like sounding BSPP/BSPT screw thread designations. Both of these ANSI pipe screw threads are taper pipe screw threads.
Is 3/4 BSP the same as 20mm?
Sometimes these fittings may be referred to in imperial form. For threads and PVC Pipe: half inch refers to 15mm, three quarter inch refers to 20mm, one inch refers to 25mm, one and a quarter inch refers to 32mm, one and a half inch refers to 40mm, two inch refers to 50mm.
Can you screw BSP into NPT?
NPT/NPS and BSP threads are not compatible due to the differences in their thread forms, and not just the fact that most sizes have a different pitch.
