Do all nozzles use the same threads? is there some sort of standardized thing going on?

 

as far as i know they do. 3an is what my nos nozzle has.

 

thanks bro, I'm talking the threads used to actually bolt it down to something.

From what I can tell it looks like 1/16" or 1/8" NPT. Is one more common than the other?

 

Correct, it's one or the other. The larger nozzles are 1/8" NPT and smaller style 1/16" NPT. Who's nozzle do you have?

I don't have any Nozzles, I'm just wondering which is more commonly used? or maybe having one over another is more beneficial? I have no idea, and thanks for any help

 

I'd say it's a 50/50 mix of both. Usually the orifice on the 1/8" NPT nozzles are larger, so you can get a larger shot out of them (I'm talking about a 200+ HP shot). One benifit would be if you were trying to do a 300 shot using 1 nozzle, but other then that it's different nozzle designs.

thanks for info Matt

 

whoa...i just tapped a nozzle in (my first ones0 and the tap i used was metric...it was an 8mm x 1.0 and it was the only thing that i could find that was close... and it worked like a charm.
Good luck!
BTW , mine were for flame throwers in my exhaust
