Garden Hose Threads (GHT), just like NST and NPSH, seals with a gasket in the female coupling. A typical garden hose may be 5/8″ or 3/4″ inside diameter but the fitting on the ends will be GHT. GHT is not compatible with NPT. For example, 3/4″ GHT is not the same as 3/4″ NPT.
What size pipe thread is a garden hose?
Threads are garden hose thread (GHT), which is 3/4″ diameter strait (non-tapered) thread with a pitch of 11.5 threads per inch (TPI) on one end and tapered NPT (National Pipe Thread) on the other.
Will a 3/4 NPT work with a garden hose?
A: The internal threads are female pipe thread and you cannot attach a garden hose without and adapter. Get the short adpater that is 3/4″ National Pipe Thread (NPT) on one end and 3/4″ garden hose on the other.
