Every single bond is a sigma bond.

A double bond contains 1 sigma bond and 1 pi bond.

A triple bond contains 1 sigma bond and 2 pi bonds.

For example, in acetylene, H-C≡C-H, the sigma bond is formed by the head-on overlap of two sp orbitals. The pi bonds are formed by the side-on overlap of 2p orbitals.
