RSG Posted July 2, 2022 Report Share Posted July 2, 2022 Hi im replacing an old 2 stage regulator with a flame king acr-2. It is not Teflon taped where the pigtails are screwed into regulator. This is factory direct. Does anyone know if this junction is factory sealed? I was not able to unscrew the pigtails using a significant amount of torque, so I stopped trying in case that would compromise the seal.

Darryl&Rita Posted July 3, 2022 Report Share Posted July 3, 2022 If a factory install, it might have a thread sealing paste applied to the threads. Is there any sign of a pale red, crusty looking material around the threads? If so, torque will remove the fittings. Use a thread tape or paste rated for gas to reinstall new fittings.
