ThreadNPT
ThreadNPT
captures tapered National Pipe Thread specifications used in fluid and gas systems. The model records nominal size, taper rate, thread series (NPT or NPTF), engagement length, and sealing notes. It also tracks whether sealant or tape is required, the pressure rating, and any compliance references such as ASME B1.20.1. Structuring NPT data helps ensure fittings mate properly, supports pressure testing workflows, and avoids costly leaks due to mismatched taper or class. Confidence values and sourcing information highlight when manual review is necessary before releasing a piping assembly, and integration with component metadata makes it easy to plan pressure tests.
Bases: Thread
American National Standard Pipe Thread standards, often called National Pipe Thread (NPT) standards.
