British Whitworth Threaded Sight Glasses

Sight glasses with parallel or tapered threads conforming to the British Whitworth form. Parallel threads are abbreviated as BSPP and designated as G-threads. Taper threads are denoted as BSPT, or R-threads. British Whitworth threadform differs from the US Standard NPT threads in two ways: the tooth angle and the shape of its roots and tips. Specifically, NPT thread has a 60-degree tooth profile, while BSW has 55 degrees. Roots and crests are rounded instead of flat as in NPT. These two differences have little practical advantages or disadvantages over NPT. Taper angle 1.79 is common between the two types. BSW and NPT fittings are not interchangeable. One cannot fit into a mating part having the other type of threads.
