NPT (National Pipe Thread) and JIC (Joint Industry Council) are both types of fittings used in fluid transfer systems, but they differ in design and application. NPT fittings have a tapered thread that creates a seal through the wedging action of the threads, while JIC fittings use a 37-degree flare seating surface to create a metal-to-metal seal, providing a more reliable, reusable connection.
