  • Pipe Joining for Plumbing and Heating Systems
    TM 26 January 2020 JOURNAL OF DESIGN INNOVATION FOR HYDRONIC AND PLUMBING PROFESSIONALS Pipe Joining for Plumbing and Heating Systems TM 5212 Series SinkMixer Scald Protection Point-of-use Mixing Valve • 4-way design simplifies piping and minimizes connection points. • Stand-off mounting bracket for simple sturdy installation. • Patented design, wide flow range to handle a variety of fixtures. • Forged low lead dezincification resistant brass for durability. Controlling and protecting your water www.caleffi.com - Milwaukee, WI USA FROM THE GENERAL MANAGER & CEO Dear Plumbing and Hydronic Professional, It was the 1990s when I attempted my first soldering job. What a mess! Although the replacement water softener ended up working fine, my workmanship was nothing short of “bush league”. There was more solder on the basement floor and on the outside of the pipe, than there was in the completed joint. Fortunately the softener was in my own home. I’ve long since moved on from there but would not be surprised if someday that work is posted up on one of those “hacked-up install” websites! That experience gave me an appreciation for the skill that goes into producing a reliable pipe connection in a timely manner. Fast forwarding to today there are several new pipe joining technologies available that not only produce a reliable connection, but require significantly less time than traditional methods. As skilled labor becomes increasingly scarce, it’s likely that manufacturers will introduce even more innovate “quick-joining” technologies and methods. This issue of idronics discusses classic and contemporary methods of joining piping in hydronic and plumbing applications.

  • Definition of Pipe Thread Acronyms National Pipe Thread Taper (NPT) Is a U.S
    Pipe Thread Definitions Checking thread type can be done with a thread gauge. Thread types can also be specified on existing pipe labels, manufacturer specifications or on manufacturer drawings. The specified sealant tape or paste should be used when required for installation. Definition of Pipe Thread Acronyms National Pipe Thread Taper (NPT) is a U.S. standard for tapered NPT National Pipe Thread (tapered) threads on threaded pipes and fittings. In contrast to straight threads, a taper thread will be tighter and have a fluid/air-tight seal . FPT is a term for pipe fittings that MIP (male iron pipe) or MNPT (male Female Pipe Thread FPT national pipe thread) fittings fit into. Female threads are internal located (interchangeable with NPT) inside of the pipe or fitting. Female Iron Pipe (interchangeable FIP, Female Iron Pipe, or Female International Pipe- Similar to FPT, FIP FIP with NPT) connect NPT pipe together with internal threads.

  • Quality Procedure (QP) 158 (Process Controle
    Quality Procedure QP158 Thread Inspection Procedure Owner: Quality Manager Change History: See DCN for Details Rev Date DCN Number Current Revision G 2018-0810 DCN16716 1. PURPOSE 1.1. This procedure defines the control method for thread inspection to ensure that product meets design requirements. 2. SCOPE 2.1. This procedure applies to manufactured and procured components and tooling with internal or external threads. 3. DEFINITIONS 3.1. Thread - A helical structure used to convert between rotational and linear movement or force. A screw thread is a ridge wrapped as a helix around either a cylinder (a straight thread) or a cone (a tapered thread). Threads can be used as a simple machine or as a fastener. Threads can be left or right-handed and internal or external. Thread form is the cross-sectional form of a thread. Inch threads are typically documented by stating the diameter of the thread followed by the threads per inch, such as 3/8-18 which is a 3/8 inch diameter thread with 18 threads per inch, or by thread angle, which is the angle between the threads. This angle determines the style or type of thread (i.e. NPT, pipe thread). Metric threads are defined by their pitch. Example: M16 x 1.25 x 30 has a pitch of 1.25 and a 16mm major diameter and a length of 30mm. 3.2. Lead Angle - On the straight thread, it is the angle made by the helix of the thread at the pitch line with a plane perpendicular to the axis. Lead angle is measured in an axial plane.

    DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE BUREAU OF STANDARDS George K. Burgess, Director REPORT OF THE NATIONAL SCREW THREAD COMMISSION (REVISED, 1924) MISCELLANEOUS PUBLICATIONS, BUREAU OF STANDARDS, No. 61 DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE BUREAU OF STANDARDS GEORGE K. BURGESS, Director REPORT OF THE NATIONAL SCREW THREAD COMMISSION (REVISED, 1924) (AUTHORIZED BY CONGRESS, JULY 18, 1918, H. R. 10852) AS APPROVED AUGUST 19, 1924 FEBRUARY 11, 1925 MISCELLANEOUS PUBLICATIONS OF THE BUREAU OF STANDARDS No. 61 PRICE 35 CENTS Sold only by the Superintendent of Documents, Government Printing Office Washington, D. C. WASHINGTON GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE 1925 PREFACE This report is the first revision of the progress report of the Na- tional Screw Thread Commission published in 1921. The material has been generally rearranged and subdivided into sections, all specifications relating to a given class of product being included in a single section. Among the more important changes made in the specifications as previously published are the following: The classes of fit have been renamed and renumbered; the tolerance on major diameter of screws of classes 3 and 4 has been made the same as for class 2; specifications for gages have been extensively revised, and the allowances and tolerances on fire-hose coupling threads have been revised to decrease the maximum permissible looseness. In general, any screw thread product which met the previous specifications will meet the revised specifications. New material added includes speci- fications for threading tools, recommended tool shapes, tap dimen- sions, and tap drill sizes; specifications for screw threads of special diameters, pitches and lengths of engagement; specifications for gages for fire-hose coupling threads; specifications for wood screws; and the appendixes, which embody information supplementing the specifications.

  • Tapered Pipe Threads and Fittings: Making the Connection | ISM
    30/5/2564 Tapered Pipe Threads and Fittings: Making the Connection | ISM 800.781.8487 ISM End your search, simplify your supply chain Industrial Specialties Mfg. & IS MED Specialties ISO 9001:2015 Certied Companies Menu TAPERED PIPE THREADS AND FITTINGS: MAKING THE CONNECTION ENSURING A GAS OR LIQUID-TIGHT CONNECTION MEANS UNDERSTANDING TAPERED PIPE THREADS NPT, National Pipe Taper (American) and BSPT (British standard Pipe Taper) are tapered pipe thread standards. Male and female tapered pipe threads wedge themselves together but need a sealant for a completely leak-free connection. Sealants ll any voids between the threads that could travel along the thread spiral. Tube and pipe are not the same thing Tube and pipe are hollow structures designed to provide a path for the ow of uids or gases. The main difference between tube and pipe is that pipe walls are thicker and stiffer. Tubing is never threaded because its walls are too thin. Pipe walls are strong enough to support cut or molded threads. Threaded pipe can provide gas or liquid-tight connections that are mechanically strong. Pipe threads There are many national and international standards for pipe threads. They vary by intended use such as garden hose threads and re hose threads among others. There are also historical developments behind “standard” pipe sizes and the shapes of threads. Examples of this are the differences between American and British threads. Units of measure play a part too. How to Install The two basic categories of pipe thread Plastic Thread Fittings • Parallel or straight pipe thread • Tapered pipe thread Take a look at a selection of ISM's metal threaded ttings and plastic threaded ttings.
