What are you using for sealer?I changed out two twenty some year old spigots they are brass on iron pipe one inch.
they both leak thru the threads cannot tighten enough to stop leaking what am I doing wrong?
I used regular pipe dope I did just wrap with Teflon tape one tiny drop leaked out. Will do the other one and add one more extra wrap.What are you using for sealer?
RectorSeal or Teflon tape would be my choice
The pipe dope seems to work good on the iron pipe to iron pipe but not so good on iron to brass. The Teflon tape worked on that connection the chicken turned out yummyI've used rector seal on my well fittings, it's a good pipe dope. I only have about 40lb of pressure so can't say how it works on city type pressure..
Enjoy your chicken!
