Key considerations and practical tips
Guidance to maximize reliability and longevity:
- Use appropriate pipe thread sealant or Teflon tape rated for malleable iron and metal threads to ensure a tight, leak‑free connection.
- Align pipes carefully and avoid cross‑threading; hand‑tighten firmly, then apply a modest final torque to prevent thread damage.
- Confirm the application is suitable for FPT connections and the media you’re transporting (water, steam, air, etc.).
