  2. Birmingham gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birmingham_gauge

    For larger mechanical tubing, however, the gauge number indicates the wall thickness, independent of the tube's overall size. In medicine, the Birmingham gauge is widely used to specify the outer diameter of hypodermic needles, catheters, cannulae, and suture wires. However, catheters are more commonly defined using the French catheter gauge ...

  3. Nominal Pipe Size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nominal_Pipe_Size

    Nominal Pipe Size (NPS) is a North American set of standard sizes for pipes used for high or low pressures and temperatures. [1] " Nominal" refers to pipe in non-specific terms and identifies the diameter of the hole with a non-dimensional number (for example – 2-inch nominal steel pipe" consists of many varieties of steel pipe with the only criterion being a 2.375-inch (60.3 mm) outside ...

    The pipe wall thickness has a variance of approximately 12.5 percent. In the rest of Europe pressure piping uses the same pipe IDs and wall thicknesses as Nominal Pipe Size, but labels them with a metric Diameter Nominal (DN) instead of the imperial NPS. For NPS larger than 14, the DN is equal to the NPS multiplied by 25.

  5. Tube (fluid conveyance) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tube_(fluid_conveyance)

    A tube and pipe may be specified by standard pipe size designations, e.g., nominal pipe size, or by nominal outside or inside diameter and/or wall thickness. The actual dimensions of pipe are usually not the nominal dimensions: A 1-inch pipe will not actually measure 1 inch in either outside or inside diameter, whereas many types of tubing are ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_pipe_thread

    National Pipe Taper Fuel (NPTF, also called Dryseal American National Standard Taper Pipe Thread, defined by ASME B1.20.3) is designed to provide a more leak-free seal without the use of PTFE tape (often referred to by the popular brand name "Teflon") or another sealant compound. NPTF threads have the same basic shape but with crest and root ...

  7. Copper tubing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_tubing

    The printing only references the gauge thickness of the pipe, which may affect application choice and address quality/durability concerns for the product selected. In the North American plumbing industry, the size of copper tubing is designated by its nominal diameter, which is 1 ⁄ 8 th inch less than the outside diameter.

  8. Plumbing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plumbing

    Thicker walled pipe generally implies greater durability and higher pressure tolerances. Pipe wall thickness is denoted by various schedules or for large bore polyethylene pipe in the UK by the Standard Dimension Ratio (SDR), defined as the ratio of the pipe diameter to its wall thickness. Pipe wall thickness increases with schedule, and is ...

  9. Peristaltic pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peristaltic_pump

    t = wall thickness of the tubing. Then y = 2t − g, when expressed as the absolute amount of squeeze, y = 100% × (2t − g) / (2t), when expressed as a percentage of twice the wall thickness. The occlusion is typically 10% to 20%, with a higher occlusion for a softer tube material, and a lower occlusion for a harder tube material.
