This is a naming convention adopted by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). For HPLC fittings, the first number indicates the diameter of the threaded portion of the nut (not the tubing that goes inside). When the diameter is less than \u00bc”, as it is in this case, a gauge value is used (gauge 10). The number following the hyphen refers to the number of threads per inch, thus indicating the \u201cpitch\u201d of the threads.
