Tightening torque estimate
Pipe threads are made up to a seal against the mating flanks, not tightened to a bolt preload, so no proof load or tightening-torque figure applies.
Put 1-1/2-11 BSPP on a job sheet
The bolt schedule collects the fasteners for one job onto a single sheet - tap drill, wrench size, grade and tightening torque on every line, taken straight from pages like this one. Free schedules hold 3 lines and are saved in this browser only.
1-1/2-11 BSPP is a BSPP pipe thread running at 11 threads per inch on a 47.803 mm major diameter. BSPP (G) is a parallel thread sealed by a bonded washer or gasket, not by thread interference - so it has no tapered tap-drill sizing.
All values are generated from the standard thread formulas (ISO 68-1 / ASME B1.1) and published standard tables - not hand-entered. See the full reference.
Frequently asked questions
What drill size do I need to tap 1-1/2-11 BSPP?
Drill - before tapping 1-1/2-11 BSPP. BSPP (G) is a parallel thread sealed by a bonded washer or gasket, not by thread interference - so it has no tapered tap-drill sizing.
Is 1-1/2-11 BSPP a tapered or parallel thread?
1-1/2-11 BSPP is parallel. BSPP (G) threads do not seal on the thread itself; the joint seals on a bonded washer, gasket or O-ring at the face.
How many threads per inch does 1-1/2-11 BSPP have?
1-1/2-11 BSPP runs at 11 threads per inch, a pitch of 2.309 mm, on a major diameter of 47.803 mm.
Is there a torque spec for 1-1/2-11 BSPP?
No. Pipe threads are made up to a seal against the mating flanks, not tightened to a bolt preload, so no proof load or tightening-torque figure applies.
