Autoclave Engineers Low Pressure Pipe Bulkhead Coupling

Parker Autoclave Engineers P Series pipe fittings and couplings are designed for primary liquid and gas applications. Available from 1/4" to 1" NPT to 15,000 psi and temperatures to 400°F. Special material components may be supplied with four flats in place of standard hex. NPT (Pipe) Connections: - NPT threads must be sealed using a high quality PTFE tape and/or paste product. Refer to thread sealant manufacturer's instructions on how to apply thread sealant. - Sealing performance may vary based on many factors such as pressure, temperature, media, thread quality, thread material, proper thread engagement and proper use of thread sealant. - Customer should limit the number of times an NPT fitting is assembled and disassembled because thread deformation during assembly will result in deteriorating seal quality over time. When using only PTFE tape, consider using thread lubrication to prevent galling of mating parts.
