In 1973 American National Standards Committee B2, which had formerly been respansible for pipe thread standards, was absorbed by ANSI Standards Committee BI and reorganized as subcommittee 20. A cam- plete rewrite of the B2.2-1968 standard on Dryseal Pipe Threads has been completed, with the product thread data in separate documents from the gaging standards for Dryseal Pipe Threads. The system of num- bering, to include metric conversions, is as follows: ANSI BI.20,3-1976 Dryseal Pipe Threads (Inch) [ANSI BI_20.4-1976 Dryseal Pipe Threads (Metric Translation) ANSI BI_20.5-1978 Gaging for Dryseal Pipe Threads (Inch) In preparation, BI.20.6M Gaging for Dryseal Pipe Threads (Metric Transat ) A complete rewrite of the B2.1-196H standard an Pipe Threads (Except Dryseal) was then undertaken. The system of numbering, to include metsic conversions, is as Follows: ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 Pipe Threads, General Purpose (Inch) {In preparation, BI.20.2M Pipe Thicads, General Purpose (Metric Translation) ‘These standards, ANSIVASME BI.20.1 und B1.20.2M, have product thread dimensions and gaging in the ‘same document. Thread inspection specifies the use of L, taper thread plug and ring gages similar to B2.1-1968, In addition, emphasis is given to the requirement that all basic thread design dimensions are to ‘be met within the specified tolerances, ‘The data in this Standard supersede those given in ANSI B2.1-1968. The ANSWASME RI70.1 was approved by ASME Standards ( publication as an official ANSI standard, ‘The proposed standard was submitted by standards committee BL to the Secretariat and the American National Standards Institute, It was approved and formally designated as an American National Standard ‘on February 4, 1983, ite BI on December 1, 1982 for Copyright by the American Society Of Mechanical Engineers Thu Feb Of 12:48:08 2007
