Paso 1 - Determine si el hilo es cónico o paralelo
NPT / NPTF y BSPT son hilos cónicos, mientras que UN / UNF y BSPP son paralelos. Metric
Tapered y Metric Parallel hablan por sí mismos. En algunos casos, el paso 1 se puede lograr
solo mediante inspección visual. Los hilos cónicos se hacen más pequeños en diámetro
hacia el extremo del accesorio, mientras que los hilos paralelos mantienen el mismo
diámetro de principio a fin. Si esto no es obvio al observar el ajuste, use las mordazas
paralelas de una pinza para hacer una comparación. Además, la presencia de una junta
tórica o la extracción de una tuerca de tubo suele indicar que la rosca macho es paralela. La
finalización del Paso 1 eliminará tres de las seis formas posibles de subprocesos.

Combining the results of Steps 1 and 2 will determine – or help predict, in some cases – the
correct procedure for Step 3. There are two methods for determining the thread size –
which to use depends on whether the thread is a pipe thread (NPT/NPTF, BSPT, BSPP) or is
not a pipe thread (UN/UNF, Metric Parallel, Metric Tapered). Keep in mind that tapered (as
determined in Step 1) does not necessarily mean that it is a pipe thread (e.g., Metric
Tapered). Likewise, pipe thread can be parallel (e.g., BSPP).
For pipe thread, determine the size by comparing it with a nominal size profile, as shown in
Figure 1 (a useful tip – pipe sizes up to 2” nominal size can be determined by measuring the
actual outside diameter, subtracting ¼” then rounding-off). For non-pipe thread, the actual
size can be determined by measuring the outside diameter (major diameter) with a caliper,
as shown in Figure 2.

Your company’s maintenance and repair professionals can put this easy four-step process
to use to minimize machine downtime, avoid the expense of acquiring (and returning)
incorrect parts and help ensure a safe, accident-free work environment.

*For JIS (Japanese Industrial Standards), the thread can be identified similar to BSPP and BSPT
but defined with PF and PT, respectively. For example, PF 1/8 and PT 1/2.
