How Thread Size is Notated: #10-32
Please Note: For solid tubes, diameters under 1/4” are given as numbers (e.g. #12) instead of inches, in order of increasing size. For hollow lamp pipes, diameters are notated as IP (Iron Pipe) instead of inches. IP is equivalent to NPSM (National Pipe Straight Mechanical), as noted in chart.
