Threads
We offer many different types of thread choices to accommodate our customers throughout the USA. We maintain a card file in our office with thread types used by various cities throughout the USA.
Our standard threads are NST (NH). They will generally drop-ship quicker from Kochek’s vast inventory. NSPH, GHT, and NPT can also be supplied for no additional charge. If your thread type is not shown below, please give us a call to discuss your requirements.
- National Standard Thread (NST), also known as National Hose thread (NH). It is the most common type of fire hose coupling used in the United States.
- National Pipe Straight Hose (NPSH), also known as Iron Pipe Thread(IPT). It has the same TPI as NPT, but the thread does not taper. NPSH is a straight thread and seals by a gasket in the female coupling which allows for a swivel, just like NH/NST, which makes both ideal for hose couplings.
- National Pipe Thread Taper(NPT)is a U.S. standard for tapered threads used on threaded pipes and fittings. NPT is not available on swivels.
