1) JIS Tapered Pipe Thread
The Japanese tapered pipe thread connector is identical to and interchangeable with the BSPT (tapered) connector. The Japanese male thread does not have a 30° Flare, and will not mate with the BSPP female swivel with conical seat. The seal on the Japanese tapered pipe thread connector is made on the threads. Use of a thread sealant is recommended. Thread form per JIS B 0203 (identical to BSPT)
2) JIS 30° Flare (Female Internal Cone Seat)
This connection uses a 60° concave (inverted) seat and British Standard Pipe Parallel threads. They are not interchangeable with BSPP conical seat couplings, because the cone seats are opposite. Thread form per JIS B 0202 (identical to BSPP)
