ASME standard for Threaded Pipe 1

[NL8]

Can anybody tell me if there is an ASME standard for NPT thread engagement? I know B1.20.1 covers the thread form, but I want to be sure that it includes the extra information I need before I shell out the cash.

Yes there is a "Standard" for pipe thread engagement.
