Basic Dimensions of American Standard Taper Pipe Threads
For all dimensions see corresponding reference letters in table. Angle between sides of thread is 60 degrees. Taper of thread on diameter is ¾ inches per foot. Angle of taper with centerline is 1° 47’ 24” (1.7899°). The basic maximum thread height, h of the truncated thread is 0.8 x (pitch of thread). The crest and root are truncated a minimum of 0.033 x (pitch) for all pitches.
