Darren's Fitting Allowance original

[@588158]

Plumbing threading dies are tapered. Personally I have never seen a pipe thread occupy the full thread engagement of the a fitting; it is always less.

588158 never if it does that means the threads aren’t doing their job. And it will leak

Thank you very much 👍

Well Done Indeed 👍

Come on brother why not just use fractions….

[@arealmaintenanceandrepairl1103]

Why not just measure the threads in the first place subtract that from your center to center

[@mmk.network]

you can do from center elbow to the threats (an elbow that's already on a pipe), and you get perfect measurment.

Hi.... please can you help me solve or know how to solve problems or real situations of take off in threaded joints.
For this examples:
1) A piece of NPS ∅2" pipe is being cut to run between two 90° degree threaded fittings. The center-to-center measurement of the fittings is 7'-2¼". What is the cut length of the pipe?
2) A length of NPS ∅1½ inch pipe is to be cut run between two 90° degree 6.000# threaded fittings. The fittings measure 7 ft 2¼ inches center to center. What is the cut length of the pipe?
Regards.... Thanks

Como saber la medida del carrete

[@dr.allanlevandowski3720]

Have you ever heard of a ruler that measures in inches? Worthless

[@medavis]

Can't convert metric units to imperial units? A piping project might not be for you, doc.
