• Food, cosmetic, drug, or water systems for human consumption
• Vacuum systems where any hydrocarbon outgassing will affect performance

➀Cure time and sealing are dependent on many variables, such as storage conditions, cleanliness of threads, quality of threads, temperature, materials of construction, proper assembly, specific gravity of system media, and system operating pressures.

The complete catalog contents must be reviewed to ensure that the system designer and user make a safe product selection. When selecting products, the total system design must be considered to ensure safe, trouble-free performance. Function, material compatibility, adequate ratings, proper installation, operation, and maintenance are the responsibilities of the system designer and user.
