Connectors Seal Male Threaded Pipes With Ease

From FasTest, Inc.
 

 
Manually sealing male-threaded, iron or galvanized pipe, can be a difficult application. The edges of the pipe are often rough from the cutting and threading process. Our new TwistMate PT connectors will seal these pipes better and with less effort. The TwistMate PT connectors are ideal for making quick, effortless connections to threaded pipes 1/4" to 3" NPT. Simply turn the TwistMate finger-tight onto the pipe until the face seal makes contact. The connector seals automatically when test pressure is applied.
