BSP (BRITISH STANDARD PIPE)
G (BSP) thread, also known as British Standard Pipe (BSP) parallel thread, is a widely used thread standard for pipe fittings and fluid systems. It is a parallel (straight) thread, meaning it does not provide a sealing function by itself and typically requires a sealing ring or gasket.
Characteristics:
- Thread Type: Parallel (straight)
- Thread Angle: 55°
- Sealing Method: Requires an O-ring, gasket, or sealing compound
- Applications: Plumbing, hydraulic systems, pneumatic systems, industrial piping
G-thread is commonly used for pipe connections that do not rely on the thread itself for sealing but instead use additional sealing elements.
