Yes, NPTF threads are tapered. NPTF stands for National Pipe Taper Fuel, which is a type of thread designed to provide a leak-free seal without the use of sealant by having threads that taper along the length of the fitting. This taper allows the threads to compress and form a tight seal as they are tightened.
