ctreptow December 5, 2004 Share December 5, 2004 Does anyone know what the thread count is on PVC pipe? I want to buy a tap set but I want it to work for PVC. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craby December 6, 2004 Share December 6, 2004 Chris, The thread count varies by size of pipe (1/2", 3/4"...) but they are all National Pipe Thread or "NPT". HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryL December 6, 2004 Share December 6, 2004 depending on the size of the pipe you may be able to rent a threader as they can get very large. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctreptow December 6, 2004 Author Share December 6, 2004 Thanks Guys That's what I tought but know PVC and Cpvc have different threads and steel has another count. I wanted to get a tap for 3/4 that would work with PVC pipe. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelg December 15, 2004 Share December 15, 2004 Make sure you have the right bit to drill the hole with as well. For 1/2" it is a real goofy size and not a typical one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
