Locknut for 3/4 in NPT piping
This galvanised malleable iron locknut fits a 3/4 in nominal pipe size with NPT threads. It is intended for plumbing installations that require a secure mechanical joint. The Class 150 rating indicates the pressure class for standard water, oil or gas service. Buyers needing a different thread standard or a larger diameter should select another fitting.
California Proposition 65 notice

Questions about this item
How do I install this 3/4 in NPT locknut without cross-threading?
Start the locknut by hand onto the male NPT threads until it seats fully, then tighten with a wrench; the step people get wrong is applying pipe wrench force before the threads are fully engaged.
What maintenance or replacement will this galvanized malleable iron locknut need later?
Inspect the galvanized coating annually for white rust or pitting; replace the locknut if the zinc layer is breached or if the iron shows red corrosion.
What limit shows up first on this Class 150 locknut under sustained pressure?
The Class 150 pressure rating is the governing limit; sustained internal pressure above that rating risks permanent deformation of the malleable iron body.
