Female National Pipe Thread

Well, you got 75%.  :-)

NPT is National Pipe Taper, and
NPS is National Pipe Straight.

The latter is used on electical conduit, the former is a self sealing
thread used on pressure fittings.

For more information on thread forms - there are hundreds - check any
edition of Machinery Handbook.  It's the Bible of the machinist, so much
so that toolboxes have a special drawer in the top middle just to fit
this book in.
