Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between BSPP and BSPT threads?
BSPP (G thread, ISO 228-1) is parallel — it requires an O-ring or bonded seal on the port face to create a seal. BSPT (R thread, ISO 7-1) is tapered — it self-seals through thread interference like NPT, typically needing PTFE tape. BSPP is standard in European and British hydraulic systems; BSPT is common on East Asian equipment.
Are BSPP and NPT threads interchangeable?
No. Although the pitch and angle look similar at first glance, BSP (G/R) and NPT are not interchangeable. NPT has 60° thread angle; BSP has 55°. Forcing them together causes cross-threading and leakage. We supply dedicated cross-standard adapters (BSP × NPT) for these conversions.
