Anyone use the BSPP threaded versions of these?

The HFC57 Series can be gotten in 3/8" BSPP threads.

Does that require PTFE tape, or will an Oring on the connector handle it? Never really liked the idea of using PTFE tape on non tapered threads (what its intended use is for) but I just cant tell if that has a proper surface for an Oring to seal against.

looks to me like an o-ring will work but I would still use the teflon tape.

I was looking at those last night. They look great compared to the Alphacool ball valves.

Zaskar, let me know what you find out.

Will do.

Looking at it a bit closer and at a different lighter colored version it seems it has a seal on the inside:

I think its meant to be used with a fitting that has long threads so the end can hit the rubber seal on the inside of the Female fitting before the male end runs out of threads.

How much are these things anyway...I can't seem to find pricing without having to register on their site.

Ugh...I'm kinda bumping my own post. :shakes:

Anyone have a cost on one set of the CPC disconnects?
