Please submit an inquiry to the B16 committee. This might be an errata.
 
pmover,

It's surely a typo. The same tables are found in ASME B16.34 Fig 2 and Fig 3. Dimensions are in mm.

the inquiry will be submitted on monday w/ the reference to 16.34 as well.

um, the 2003 & 2009 editions are aok.

i guess the change to metric led to some oversights/errors.

keep your eyes open . . .
 
the asme b16.5 2017 edition has this matter corrected.
