What sealant if any should I be using on 1/8" NPT connections for
pitot, static and AOA on instruments?
*Brass female and Brass male
*Brass female and Aluminum male
*Brass female and Nylon male
*Aluminum female and Nylon male
Is it acceptable to
use.250" OD .125" ID Tygone tubing going over .1875"
OD(before single barb) nipple for pitot, static and AOA
plumbing? A little heat on tubing from a heat gun and it slides right
on.Would it be worth it to put a double wrap of .020" safty
wire on Tygon tubng near root to act as a clamp?
I have a two
pneumatic switches, one to select between static and total energy for Ilec
variometer and one to function to allowalternate static. these
switches have a stainless body with female 10-32 straight threaded ports.
The .1875' ODnipplesI want to use are male straight threaded
10-32 that come with a flat sealing washer. What if anything shouldI
be putting on threads as a sealant?
Thx.
