Works, fits, quality.

I was initially skeptical that it was made of stainless steel. However, after a full season in the pool with my Hurricane filter and no leaks, I am convinced. Bought as I had a red brass fitting before and couldn't stop it from leaking. This is screwed and fits perfectly with PVC and existing stainless steel. I can pressurize the pump to about 35psi without leaking.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Other Other

Not quite right on hydraulics, pneumatics and plumbing

I bought two of these to install a new water softener. I put them on normally and one is leaking. I took it apart and wrapped the threads in teflon tape and had to tighten it almost all the way to keep it from leaking. Then the second started leaking. I had to wrap teflon tape around it ten times and press against the flange to seal it. My guess is that the bagpipe's cone isn't entirely correct.

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Obsolete model

No problem with these

They're pretty thin walled as far as tube fittings go, but being made from 304 stainless steel there should be little or no corrosion breakdown when using water of an acceptable pH. so the walls can be thinner. I installed them on 304 MNPT stainless steel fittings. There was some tendency to bile, but not enough to cause any problems. Seals well when used with PTFE pipe tape. In general, they cope with the task.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Off the Fashion
