NPS and DN Basics

What is NPS?

NPS (Nominal Pipe Size) is a North American size designation in inches, but it is not the exact outside diameter.

What is DN?

DN (Nominal Diameter) is the metric designation used in ISO/EN standards. It is a nominal size, not an exact diameter.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is DN the exact pipe diameter in mm?

No. DN is a nominal size. Actual OD varies by standard.

Are NPS and DN always 1:1?

They are standardized mappings, but always verify OD and wall thickness from the applicable standard.

Which standard should I follow?

Use ASME B36.10M/B36.19M for NPS and EN/ISO tables for DN projects.
