British tapered threads (BSPT)
For British tapered threads (BSPT) caution should be taken as the most common tapered fitting in North America is NPT. The easiest way to distinguish any tapered fitting type from NPT is to verify if a chamfered sealing surface exists. If it does the fitting is most likely NPT. If not, it is either BSPT or Metric Taper (Metric Taper is far less common).
