NPT Assembly Instructions
STEP 1:
Inspect port and fitting to ensure that both are free of contaminants and excessive burrs and nicks.
STEP 2:
Apply a stripe of an anaerobic liquid pipe sealant around the male threads leaving the first two
threads uncovered. If no liquid sealant is available, wrap Teflon tape (width of 12.7mm and thickness of
0.1mm) 2.5- 3 turns in a clockwise direction, viewed from the pipe end, leaving the rest two threads uncovered.
CAUTION: Teflon tape and some pipe sealants are destructive to hydraulic components. Always use
extreme caution and follow manufacturer’s recommendations for proper application of any sealant in
order to prevent contamination.
STEP 3:
Screw finger tight into the port
STEP 4:
Wrench tighten the fitting to the correct Turns Past Finger Tight position. A properly assembled
fittings total thread engagement should be 3.5 to 6 turns.
CAUTION: Never back off an installed pipe fitting to achieve proper alignment. Loosening installed
pipe fittings will corrupt the seal and contribute to leakage and failure.
