[QUOTE="AngerManagement, post: 515465, member: 3760"] Firm and do not tighten up fully - The oring seals on the internal surfaces and puts extra outward pressure on the casing. Other systems the oring seals on the end surfaces and thus you need to tighten firmly. Do not add PTFE tape as that will just add extra to the thread and will add to extra forces that will assist with any fracturing. The casing is thin and under stress, thus hard knocks may also cause teh casing to let go. Later batches may have a better casing but I am yet to see any. Take care. [/QUOTE]
