Thread profile
Internal profile over three pitches at the gage plane, drawn at maximum material (sharpest crest, flattest root); hatched bands are the truncation zones. Diameters shortened.
Thread length, taper and gage planes
Lengths, taper and gage planes to scale; diameters shortened. D and K at the planes are calculated with the mean truncations.

Notes
- Fine series: the thread pitch of the next smaller pipe size applied to the next larger size; full length external and internal threads (C.4). Limits at the gage plane are calculated: pitch diameter from the basic PD and the gage tolerance in turns x 0.0625p; major and minor diameters from the pitch-diameter limits, H = 0.866025p and the Fig. 2 truncation limits.
- DIFFERS: Fig. 2 prints H = 0.06180 for 14 threads per inch; 0.866025p = 0.061859, so the printed value is a misprint (0.06180 for 0.06186). The formula value is used for every calculation; Table B1 also reproduces only with 0.06186. || Rounding only (last digit): Table C1 E1: printed 1.59837; exact formula gives 1.59839 (-0.00002). The printed value is E0 + 0.0625 x the printed L1, which is rounded to 3 places, so this is rounding. | Table C1 E2: printed 1.61181; exact formula gives 1.61179 (+0.00002). The printed value is E0 + 0.0625 x the printed L2, which is rounded to 3 places, so this is rounding.

1 1/4-14 F-PTF takes a thread of the same standard at the same size and pitch. The standard mating external thread is class —. Check the fit with the standard pair →

Different pitch or a different thread family never mate; the fit check runs over both tolerance zones.
