Understanding Thread Pitch: Metric vs BSPP vs UN/UNF Comparison
TL;DR: Thread pitch defines the specific distance between threads, but it is expressed differently across standards. Metric threads measure the distance in millimeters, whereas BSPP and UN/UNF systems count Threads Per Inch (TPI). Although some diameters appear similar, these thread systems utilize different flank angles (55° vs. 60°) and are not directly interchangeable. Identifying the correct pitch is mandatory […]
