THREAD IDENTIFICATION CHART

Not sure if it’s BSPP, JIC, or NPT? We’ve got you covered.

Whether you're matching a 3" BSP Brass Ball Valve or identifying a hydraulic hose fitting, our thread chart makes the guesswork easy. Just grab a set of calipers (or even a tape measure), compare your fitting against our chart, and in most cases — boom — you’ll know exactly what thread you’ve got.

Still unsure? No worries. Snap a photo or two, send us the measurements, and we’ll help you confirm the thread so you can order with confidence.
