National Pipe Straight Mechanical - similar in thread form and
threads per inch to BSPP except at small diameters.
Luckily In 1/2" size the threads per inch are the same but there is a
slight difference on the thread OD 13/16" for BSPP and 27/32" for NPSM
which for all practical purposes will make bugger all difference.
