British Standard Specification for Copper Tubes and Their Screw Threads: Primarily for Domestic and Similar Work (Classic Reprint) - Tapa blanda

Excerpt from British Standard Specification for Copper Tubes and Their Screw Threads: Primarily for Domestic and Similar Work

The standardisation of Copper Tubes was first considered in connection with a Report made by the late Mr. Henry Lea to the Sectional Committee on Screw Threads and Limit Gauges in October, 1911.

The consideration of this subject, together with the question of standardising Union Joints and other Tube Connections, resulted in the appointment of the sub-committee on Metal Tubes and Connections, which appointment was confirmed by the Main Committee on July 18th, 1912.

The sub-committee have adopted British Standard Pipe Threads for the heavier Gauge Tubes, and the recommendations of the Sectional Committee on Screw Threads and Limit Gauges as to the gauging of Pipe Threads have been largely followed in this Report.

In drawing up their recommendations, the sub-committee availed themselves of the information previously obtained by the Joint Committee on Screwed Copper Pipe Standards appointed by the Institution of Heating and Ventilating Engineers and the National Association of Master Heating and Domestic Engineers, and they desire to record their appreciation of the information placed at their disposal by the Joint Committee and of. The pioneer work undertaken by them.
