Who can classify the thread systems?

2009-01-06View Original

Thread Content

Internal threads and external threads, left-hand and right-hand rotation go without saying. There are also various national standards such as British, American, metric, etc., as well as ordinary threads, transmission threads, pipe threads, and so on. Among pipe threads, there are British, American, and metric types; there are sealed and unsealed pipe threads, with sealed pipe threads further divided into dry-sealed and wet-sealed types, as well as cylindrical-conical and conical-conical types, among others. I’ve read some materials but still haven’t fully understood it – the variety of thread types is indeed too complex... Seeking advice from experts

Fastening connection threads – Metric ordinary threads (M), American Unified threads (UN), British Whitworth threads (B). S. W. , B. S. F, Whit. S and Whit), metric fine threads (S), metric aeronautical threads (MJ), American aeronautical threads (UNJ). Transmission connection threads – metric trapezoidal threads (30’{‘ When O}) (Tr), American trapezoidal threads (29’) (ACME), metric serrated threads (3‘/30’) (B), American and British serrated threads (7‘/45’). Pipe threads – British pipe threads (55’), American pipe threads (60’), metric pipe threads (60’). I recommend that you take a look at the “Standards Manual for Metric, American, and British Threads”: lol

Threads: There are many ways to classify threads, and those commonly used in the instrumentation industry. Such threads can also be classified by the industry in which they are used. The main types of threads used in instruments are: P-thread system, T-thread system, NPT American tapered thread, M metric straight thread, R British tapered thread, UN American straight thread, G British straight thread. Note: The P-thread system is a nominal-size thread system, while the T-thread system is a true-size thread system. 1. Tapered threads A.

P-threaded fittings are a series of threads designed for use with P-tubes; not all P-tubes can have threads of corresponding sizes created on them – only tubes of grade SCH40 and above are suitable for threading. 2. The P tube after threading will not affect the rated operating pressure, as this wall thickness has already been taken into account during design. 3. The thickened T-tube can cut threads of actual size; these threads rely on auxiliary sealing and are used in ultra-high pressure pipelines. 4. UN threads can be combined with sealing methods to form standards such as JIC and SAE/MS. 5. Metric tapered threads are widely used in the hydraulic industry, with **GB/T 1415-1992 as the reference standard. 6. For threads of the ISO 7-1 type, the European system commonly uses an external tapered tube combined with an internal straight-threaded tube, while the American system generally uses an external taper combined with an internal tapered-threaded tube. In our country, external cones with internal straight threads are generally used in medium and low pressure applications ; An external cone with an internal tapered thread is used in high-pressure equipment. The sealing pair consisting of an external cone and an internal tapered thread has a relatively long length, which imposes strict requirements on thread machining; it is not easy to achieve sealing, but once sealed, it provides excellent sealing performance. The sealing pair with an external cone and internal straight thread actually has only 1-2 thread surfaces, which makes sealing easy to achieve; however, the seal is not as reliable as that achieved with an external cone and internal cone. 8. G internal threads cannot be used in combination with R external tapered threads, otherwise the sealing effect will not be guaranteed. 9. British tapered pipe threads used in combination with American tapered pipe threads can also provide sealing, but this results in permanent damage to the threads. 10. When sealing tapered pipe threads, Teflon tape needs to be wrapped, in a direction opposite to that of tightening the threads. This post was last edited by leonnie on 2009-1-7 11:34.]

It’s a pity I can’t attach the images; I’ll upload them once they’re ready. This is a summary of pipe threads, which will help you understand them clearly

3rd floor, it would be great if it were Excel
Reply #62009-01-07
Some design manuals already provide classifications, and there are many types of threads; it’s sufficient to collect those that you use most often.
