Review on ๐Ÿ”ง High-Quality SPARC Nitrogen Regulator with CGA580 Inlet, 1/4" Flare Output - 1 Year Warranty by Tony Meyer

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Wrong thread

Although the product works generally well now, I had to fix it. The 1/4" flare fitting is spec'd to have a 7/16-20 thread, but ships with a 7/16-18 thread. Standard HVAC accessory fittings will not fit. Turn a few turns until the thread pitch mismatch it stops won't sit I was supposed to be sending it back but was just trying to replace the fitting because I needed it and in the process damaged one of the sensors (the fitting is very tight in the regulator body) $0.99 for the fitting, $12 for a new sensor. The supplier will not exchange or accept the damaged unit, which is understandable. I feel bad. I hope they will honor the regulator failure warranty. When I tried to describe the threading problem, they seemed They don't understand the design/characteristics of the fittings. The refurbished regulator actually works very well. Very well packaged.

Pros
  • Pretty packaging
Cons
  • Empty
