AN is American Navy -4 would be 7/16" UNC -6 would be 9/16" UNC -8 would be 3/4" UNC check out some catalogues, and you can soon pick up either from part numbers, or the fittings themselves what is what. NPT is the US tapered threads. ie, the threads taper and this is their sealing method. 9.85 @ 145mph

NPT for a given size, are a lot finer pitched, and any I have seen, have all been tapered, which is about 30 minutes ago, as I have 4 x -10 to 1/2" NPT adaptors for an oil cooler/filter installation in my garage. NPT is available in parallel or taper thread, as is BSP. |

The AN threads are a parallel thread not a taper. They seal on the angled part on the end of the fitting not on the thread.
