Yes, NPT (National Pipe Thread) threads have a tapered angle of 60 degrees, while BSP (British Standard Pipe) threads have a 55-degree angle and can be either parallel or tapered. You can identify them by measuring the thread angle with a gauge and checking the thread pitch and shape; NPT threads will have a slight taper, whereas BSP threads are often parallel (BSPP) or have a gentler taper (BSPT).
