How to make a sturdy thread connection pipes with your hands.

It is hard to imagine without the installation of water pipe threaded connections. They are almost always used for the installation of meters and mixers.

As practice shows it is threaded connections are most often the cause of leaks.

It is therefore very important to make the connection secure. How? Consider the following.

The threaded joints between the pipe and the fitting there is always a small gap, so the installation must necessarily thread seal.

Currently, it introduced to the market a large selection of different tapes, threads, sealants for these purposes.

But, in my opinion, to make a threaded connection reliable and durable using best flax and the investment paste "Unipack".

Here's how.

Of the total skein take a strand of flax fiber and presses the tip of the thread finger of his left hand at the end of the thread, and the right hand - tight start to wind flax clockwise.

Important! The winding should be carried out strictly according to the direction of twist of the thread.

You must move to the top of the thread, putting the thread in each round, and then back. As a result, the flax must completely cover the entire surface.

Then apply the paste investment material "Unipack" and distribute a circular motion in the same clockwise direction.

Then proceed directly to the assembly of the threaded connection.
