OK interesting. We use BSP threads here for plumbing pipes . The modern , present day 3/4 plumbers pipe is maybe a bit narrower in the OD , compared to the older pipe ?
Not sure what National pipe thread is ? Sounds like its a Nth American standard

found this , the 3\4 NPT outside diam. is around 1.050 " or 26 mm
