7.9.1 Threaded Connections. Holes maybe drilled and tapped in the wall offittings ifthe metal thickness is suffi- cientto provide the effective length ofthread as shown in Figure 7.9.1-1 and as specified in Table 7.9.1-1. Where thread length is insufficient due to metal thickness or size of tapping is such that reinforcement of opening is necessary, an integral boss should be added. In no case shall the effective length of thread A be less than that shown in Table 7.9.1-1. These lengths are equal to the effective thread lengths as shown in ASME B1.20.1.
7.9.2 Location Designation. The method of desig- nating the locations of the tapped holes for drains is shown in Figure 7.9.2-1. Each location is designated by a letter so that desired locations for the various types of fittings may be definitely specified without the use offurther illustrations or description. For further tapping details, see MSS SP-45.
