The Unified Thread Standard (UTS) defines a standard thread form and series—along with allowances, tolerances, and designations—for screw threads commonly used in the United States and Canada. It is the main standard for bolts, nuts, and a wide variety of other threaded fasteners used in these countries.
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 ...
United States Standard thread (USS thread), also known as Sellers Standard thread, [1] Franklin Institute thread [1] and American Standard thread, [2] is a standard for inch based threaded fasteners and washers. [3] The USS standard is no longer supported. It, together with the SAE fastener standard, was incorporated into the Unified Thread ...
Over the next 30 years the standard was further defined and extended and evolved into a set of standards including National Coarse (NC), National Fine (NF), and National Pipe Taper (NPT). Meanwhile, in Britain, the British Association screw threads were also developed and refined for small instrumentation and electrical equipment.
National Coarse; numerical control: The [U.S.] National Coarse series of pre-1949 corresponds today to the Unified National Coarse (UNC) of the Unified Thread Standard. NCM: nonconforming material(s) This abbreviation is used in a machine shop when recording nonconformances (out of tolerance, etc.). For example, "An NCM tag was tied to the ...

National Screw Thread Commission updates its small hose screw couplings. Covers "National Fire-Hose Coupling Thread Form" (NFHCT) recommended by NFPA "previously known as National Standard Hose Coupling Thread" and garden hoses (3/4 in.--11 1/2 threads per inch). Small hose couplings (0.5 to 2") use "National Form of Thread".
From my research "ANC" is a very uncommon acronym for "American National Coarse" (with "ANF" relating to "American National Fine"). The common acronym for these are "NC" and "NF"; see . Wizard191 20:48, 1 April 2011 (UTC) Just so you know, this document states that the only difference between the two is the 1 inch TPI.
