Introduction
Ports and connectors have wide applications in uid piping systems. Before you replace or add a hose or a tube to
your assembly, you should identify the port or connector required by your uid piping system. This guide will help
you to identify them with ease.
A thread standard de nes the form, angle, diameter, and pitch of a thread. ASME B1 .1 and ISO 261 are examples of
standards that are commonly used by thread manufacturers.
Some of the organizations that have developed commonly used thread standards include American Society of
Manufacturing Engineers, American National Standards Institute, International Organization for Standardization, SAE
International, British Association, and Deutsches Institut für Normung.
It is important to note that your measurements may not accurately match with the values provided in this guide. The
slight di erences are mainly caused by manufacturing tolerances.
After measuring the diameter of your threads, determine their spacing in threads per inch. In the case of metric
connections, measure the thread-to-thread distances. To get an accurate value, ensure that the thread pitch gauge is
tting well on the threads. Record the values and compare your measurements with the gures provided in this
guide.
Dash numbers
Dash numbers are commonly used to describe the sizes of tubes and uid pipes. These abbreviations are widely
used in component ordering. To describe a uid pipe or a tube in dash numbers, only the numerator part of the
fraction is used. The denominator, always 16, is usually ignored. For instance, a -8 size means 8/16 or 1/2 an inch. It is
important to note that dash numbers are nominal.
Dash numbers are not applicable to metric threads. Metric measurements give actual sizes of a tube or a uid pipe.
For instance, M12x1.0 means that the threads have an outer diameter of 12 mm and an inter-thread spacing of 1.0
mm.

National Pipe Tapered Fuel (NPTF)
The NPTF is a dryseal thread. The male thread mates with the female thread and a seal is formed when the two are
crushed together i.e. threads deformation. Te on and pipe dope are commonly used when additional sealing is
needed. Although this connection is widely used in uid piping systems, the National Fluid Power Association (NFPA)
does not recommend it for hydraulic applications.
NB: Although the NPTF connector and BSPT connector are similar in appearance, the two are not interchangeable.

The male connector of the ISO 6149 connection has an O-ring and a straight thread. The female half has a machined
surface, a chamfer, and a straight thread. The O-ring on the male sits on the chamfer of the female port. The ISO
6149 connection is similar to the SAE J1926-1O-ring Boss except that the former has metric threads. The O-ring on
the male connector is compressed into the chamfer to create a seal. The straight threads engage to form a
mechanically strong connection.
