Not everyone knows that the pass is also called Plumbing flas, but what it serves as an excellent hermetic connector of any threaded element is familiar to many. In addition, the novice plumber can enter such a simple procedure into a stupor as flax winding onto butt connections. Consider the process of proper winding package so that in the future it did not have to redo any work in which she participated.
It doesn't matter that it should be connected with each other - with plug-in or any other elements of the threaded connection, it is necessary to be sealed to create a tightness. In this case, a classic and cheap winding option will serve as a palable. It will suit absolutely for any kind of butt elements, if, of course, to wind it right. The advantages of this seal can also be attributed to the fact that during the service it swells and increases in volume. This ability helps to close any flow, even if it is formed immediately after the connection. However, the winding of the packley requires a certain skill, taking into account some points. About this process and will be discussed below. First, pay attention to the type of thread. They meet two main species - net thread (without notes) and thread with jar (notches). In the first case, the tightness will not be achieved even by winding flax, because It will simply crawl and get into the bundle in the process of fastening the elements. Therefore, first prepare the threads - take any kind of tool (hacksaw, extra, pliers, etc.) and make it yourself on an even thread jar. Now flax fibers will be perfectly cling to artificially created notches.If the winding of flax was carried out correctly, the desired thickness of the twisted rope, a uniform and thorough distribution of its threads, was taken into account, without skipping - a threaded connection will serve you as long as possible and stable.
