Flame king acr-2 question


RSG

Recommended Posts

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.

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.

I have been wrong before, I'll probably be wrong again.
