does this adapter need any thread sealant when you put it together, or is it good to go as-is?
Question by: Rex W on Jun 17, 2025, 4:31 PM
No sealant needed on either end. The NPT side is NPTF, which is a dryseal thread form that makes a pressure-tight seal through thread interference alone. You can run it without tape or compound and it'll hold just fine in gas, hydraulic, pneumatic, and refrigeration setups.
