Threads

BSP

BSP thread form stands for British Standard Pipe and is common in Australia and the commonwealth countries. It is based on trade size rather than actual diameter which can lead to some confusion when measuring ports. 

There are two types of BSP threads;
- BSPP - Female & male thread are both (also known as G)
- BSPT - Female thread is parallel and the male thread is tapered (also know as R/Rp) (the female thread can also be tapered it is then Rc, these are fairly rare to find). Within BSPT it is also common to call the female thread BSPP (parallel) and the male BSPT (tapered) even though they are both technically a BSPT thread form (the female would be parallel and the male would be tapered).

Both threads have the same pitch, angle (55 degrees) and shape (rounded peaks and valleys).

The below table gives the major and minor diameter for each BSP Trade Thread Size. The minor diameter may be ever so slightly smaller than what is in the table depending upon where it has been manufactured to in the thread gauge.
