Usage tips to get the most from your fitting:
- Clean and deburr pipe ends before threading to ensure a tight seal and reduce the risk of leaks.
- Use appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for stainless steel threads on all FPT connections.
- Torque to the manufacturer’s recommended range for 2-inch stainless steel threaded fittings to avoid over-tightening and distortion.
- Check alignment before final tightening to prevent stress on the joints and potential leaks in long runs.
- Inspect periodically in high-temperature or chemically aggressive environments and replace if any corrosion or wear is evident.
