National Pipe Tap, the angled self sealing thread of a pipe fitting
NPT Means NOMINAL PIPE TAPER THREAD
Full form of NPT is "National Pipe Thread"
npt, national pipe thread, is a standard for threads on a screw. I (not a plumber) don't believe "npt valve" makes sense , but probably refers to a valve which has npt threading. Yes, a NPT Valve would be a valve with pipe threads as opposed to a sweat valve which has solder connections. There are several other type of piping connections too.
NPT is a standard for threaded pipe and fittings. NPT stands for national pipe thread. NPT fittings are tapered thread fitting and usually rely on mechanical deformation in between the male and female fittings to create a seal in addition with teflon tape. Over tighteting may result in a leakage SAE O-ring fittings are straight fittings and rely on the O-ring to create the seal rather than deformation as in NPT fittings. Since these fittings do not depend on deformation chances of a broken fitting are virtually eliminated.
NPT x NPT= (NPT)2 or N2P2T2
Thread angle is different (55° vs 60°).NPT threads are flattened at the peaks and valleys, while BSPT threads are rounded.Threads per inch (TPI) is different for two (except for a couple of cases).

national pipe thread
In regards to pipes and tubing, NPT stands for national pipe thread. NPT is the American standard for threaded pipes and fittings regarding the tapered threads.
A PTF thread is the same as a NPT thread except that it has one thread less at the small diameter end. It is used when there are space (depth) considerations.
