JIS THREADS

JIS is JAPANESE INDUSTRIAL STANDARDS
There are four popular coupling styles in Japan.

 
1. JIS Tapered Pipe Thread.
3. Komatsu 30° flare (Female Internal Cone Seat).   
  Threads commonly used on Komatsu equipment (30° cone) have metric thread form.

4. Komatsu Style Flange Fitting JIS B 8363
  The Komatsu style Flange fitting is nearly identical to, and fully interchangeable with, the SAE Code 61 flange fitting*. The O Ring dimensions are different between all sizes. When replacing a Komatsu style flange with an SAE style flange, an SAE style O Ring must always be used. *5/8” is not in the SAE Standards.
  The Japanese tapered pipe thread connector is identical to and interchangeable with the BSPT (tapered) connector. The Japanese male thread does not have a 30° Flare, and will not mate with the BSPP female swivel with conical seat.
The seal on the Japanese tapered pipe thread connector is made on the threads. Use of a thread sealant is recommended.
 

Thread form per JIS B 0203 (identical to BSPT)
Refer to BSPT section for dimensions of threads.
2. JIS 30° Flare (Female Internal Cone Seat).
  This connection uses a 60° concave (inverted) seat and British Standard Pipe Parallel threads. They are not interchangeable with BSPP conical seat couplings, because the cone seats are opposite.


Thread form per JIS B 0202 (identical to BSPP)
Refer to BSPT section for dimensions of threads.

  Thread size refers to the nominal bore of the pipe. Subtract approx. 1/4" (6 mm) from thread dia meter measurement for nominal pipe size.
Pitch is Threads Per Inch (TPI). "Gas", "R" & "G" also refer to BSP. "Male Iron (Pipe)" may be BSP or NPT.
