There is often confusion about what thread is used on normal air compressors and airtools. The thread on most (if not all) air compressors, fittings and air tools is a called BSP Thread ( British Standard Pipe Thread ). BSP Thread is not a metric thread, BSP in simple terms is a British Standard Whitworth Thread which is internationally adopted as the standard thread for connecting pipes. Most hobby air compressors use the common thread size of 1/4 BSP. However the confusion comes from the fact that 1/4 BSP does not mean that it " measures " 1/4 inch imperial, the 1/4 BSP only means that it is a 1/4 BSP Thread and that is not a measurement
