• Description: Lock Nut, Washer, and two O-Rings.
• Advantage: This Kit can turn a 1/2" Male NPT Threaded Fitting into a weldless bulkhead so that it can be installed into a kettle or tank without the need for welding. For Example even a Hex Nipple can become a Bulkhead Fitting. These parts can be puchased separately, but this combination of parts sold as the kit are discounted slightly. The Grooved Lock Nut used in this kit has a groove on one side to neatly accept an O-Ring.
• Installation: To use the kit leave the Stainless Washer on the outside of the vessel, for Example, leave it on the Thermometer. Then generously wrap the threads with teflon tape and insert the Male Threads into the vessel, using our example insert the thermometer into the hole in your vessel. Finally fasten the lock nut and o-ring on the inside of the Vessel.
• Common Uses: The most common use for this kit to connect a threaded Brew Thermometer into a tank or kettle, by turning its Male NPT Thread into its own weldless bulkhead for installing without needing to welding in a coupler. This Kit is also great to connect a 1/2" NPT Same Size Adapter to Vessel walls. In this way you can add Female NPT threads to your kettle or tank without having to weld.
• The Kit includes: a 1/2" NPS Lock Nut, a Stainless Washer and two Silicone O-Ring's.
