Product Information

A mechanical thread machine (discussed in the previous section) utilizes a manually operated ratchet mechanism. Rotating the die head and cutting threads into the pipe requires physical effort. This machine type is suitable for softer and lightweight pipe materials, typically up to 2 inches (5.08 cm) in diameter. It is commonly used for small-scale projects or when threading requirements are not frequent or extensive. Power-operated threader Threaded pipes can provide an effective seal for pipes transporting liquids, gases, steam, and hydraulic fluid. These threads are now used in materials other than steel and brass, including PTFE, PVC, nylon, bronze, and cast iron. U.S. national technical standards for threads on pipes and pipe fittings Threaded pipe and elbow. The pipe has a male NPT thread, while the elbow is female.

There are many companies out there for pipe threader hires. But what makes us stand out is our commitment to providing the highest quality equipment necessary to complete your pipe threading job safely and on time.This section discusses how to thread a pipe using a mechanical threading machine. 1. Determine the pipe material A handheld thread machine is a portable, electric-powered tool used for threading pipes. It is typically smaller and more lightweight than a power-operated machine. The handheld threader features an automatic die head rotation powered by electricity. American National Standard Pipe Thread standards, often called national pipe thread standards for short, are United States national technical standards for screw threads used on threaded pipes and pipe fittings. They include both tapered and straight thread series for various purposes, including rigidity, pressure-tight sealing, or both. [1] The types are named with a full name and an abbreviation, such as NPT, NPS, NPTF, or NPSC.

A pipe threader is a tool designed to create threads on the end of a metal pipe. This helps attach a pipe to a coupling or connector, ensuring a secure and reliable joint. Mechanical threaderThe taper rate for all NPT threads is 1 inch of diameter in 16 inches of length ( 3⁄ 4 inch per foot or 62.5 millimeters per meter) measured by the change of diameter (of the pipe thread) over distance of thread. The half-angle (between the taper surface and the axis of the pipe) is arctan( 1⁄ 32) ≈ 1.7899° ≈ 1°47′. It is crucial to properly seal the threaded connections to prevent leaks and protect the pipes from corrosion. Because the thread body is tapered (0.75in/ft or 62.5mm/m), a larger diameter keeps compressing into a smaller diameter and finally forms a seal (no clearance remains between the crests and roots of the threads because of the taper). This means that NPT fittings should be burr-free and lubricated using a lubricant like lubricating paste or thread seal tape. The use of tape also helps to limit corrosion on the threads, which otherwise can make future disassembly nearly impossible.
