G thread, NPT thread, and BSPP thread , among others.
Comprehensive Step-by-Step Guide to Installing Cartridge Heaters:
1. Create a precise and accurately measured hole in the section to be heated.
2. Ream a smooth hole to ensure optimal contact and enhanced heat transfer efficiency.
3. Extend the hole through the section to facilitate the easy removal of the unit when necessary.
4. If creating a through hole is not feasible, increase the hole size within the acceptable tolerances.
5. Minimize vibration and flexing of the lead wires to significantly extend the service life of the heater.
6. Prevent liquid contamination by diligently protecting the heater's end.
