Thread Sealing

With the 577. Don’t use it on plastic threads! It makes the plastic brittle.
Only works on metal to metal.

If I have run out of the loctite mentioned.
I do use ptfe tape but I also smear jet blue on the outer wrap of the tape. I also apply it to the female thread. Obviously don’t allow it to go into the tap cartridges. I’ve never had a leak doing it this way either. This has saved me time and money and got me through.

Just to follow up on my original post.

I decided to go with the Loctite 55 first, after watching the installation video and because I could get hold of it quickly. That sorted it out - a big relief, I can tell you 😁

Thank you all so much for the great advice 👍
