Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using the wrong thread sealant for the fluid medium.Always consult the fluid's compatibility chart with sealants and select one rated for the specific chemical and temperature.
Over-tightening threaded connections, leading to pipe or fitting damage.Tighten fittings until snug, then apply the specified additional turns. Avoid excessive force.

Common Applications

  • Chemical Processing Fluid Transfer
