FAQs

Do I need special tools to install this?

Can this be used for high-pressure systems?
It is designed for standard piping pressure; verify your system specifications to ensure they fall within standard residential or commercial limits.
What should I use to seal the threads?
Use standard PTFE thread seal tape or a rated pipe thread compound for the best results.
Is the TF/BNSS020 suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, it is designed for durability and can be used in outdoor plumbing setups.
Troubleshooting
Connection is leaking
Ensure that enough thread sealant tape was applied and that the fitting is tightened sufficiently.

Verify that you are using compatible 3/4-inch threads and check for damaged or cross-threaded components.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the TF/BNSS020, first ensure that both target female fittings are clean and free of debris. Apply a high-quality thread sealing tape or an appropriate pipe thread compound to the male threads of the nipple in a clockwise direction. Thread the nipple into the first fitting by hand, then use a wrench to snug it down firmly—avoid over-tightening to prevent cracking the female fitting. Once the first side is secure, repeat the process for the second fitting. Periodically inspect connections for signs of moisture or corrosion, especially in high-pressure or outdoor environments, and tighten if necessary.
