How to find the correct pipe thread size

• WARNING: The NPT thread size is NOT referring to the size of the thread itself!
• The plumbing industry standard for the pipe sizes is NOT always as straightforward as measuring the pipe.
• Measuring the pipe will often mislead you into choosing the wrong pipe size.
• The “pipe thread size” is measured and based on the inside of the pipe.
• A lot of people measured the thread / the opening for the thread / outside diameter of the pipe, and thought that was the thread size. It was WRONG.

Make sure this fits by entering your model number.
