Anyone heard or know what NTPT thread is?
(OP)
A rep from a company that supplies our dyno, said I need to NTPT threaded fittings (in an email).
Is that a type of thread? or is that a miss-type?
I tried googling and looking at the machinists hand book.

I just wanted to point out some 'old school' nomenclature which was used by pipers
NFPT-National Female Pipe Thread
NMPT-National Male Pipe Thread
These may not be the official designation, but were commonly used a few decades past especially when 'calling out' a Crane forged steel union with male and female ends or similar fitting

NFPT-National Female Pipe Thread
NMPT-National Male Pipe Thread
Since the second letter indicates gender, then:
NTPT-National Transgendered Pipe Thread.
