ABOUT HYDRAULIC ADAPTERS

Used in industry and agriculture machine.

NPT stands for National Pipe Tapered threads, also known as ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 pipe threads. It is a U.S. standard for measuring tapered threads on threaded pipes and fittings. Threaded pipes can give an effective seal for pipes using hydraulic fluids. Sometimes referred to as MPT (male pipe threads), NPT threads are not interchangeable with NPS (National Pipe Straight) threads. Unlike straight threads found on a bolt, a taper thread will pull tight, making a closer seal. A sealant compound or PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) tape must be used to ensure a leak-free seal.
