As Jon said definately a np(tapered) thread rather than a bs(parallel) thread. However the bsp will fit just not as well as a tapered thread in a tapered hole.

They are 1/8 NPT on the cossie. This is what you should buy if you want it right.

However... 1/8 BSP tapered is soooo close in thread pitch that they can be used.
