Question:

Could you tell me why the hot water outlet of the water heater just needs to be filled with rubber washer instead of being wrapped with raw material? Five

Is the raw meal belt not used to prevent leakage between the pipe and the pipe? But I see a lot of water heaters only at the cold water outlet (into the water heater and faucet at both ends) wrapped around the raw meal belt, and at the hot water outlet (shower) is not entangled, just put two pads. Is it okay to tape the raw material at the hot water outlet? I put two pads, and a little water seepage, can you put one more? What is the function of rubber pads? Under what circumstances do you need to use raw meal belts and pads? Thank youIn the picture, the middle pipe is hot water outlet (without wrapping the raw material belt, only two pads are placed), and the right side is cold water outlet (wrapped with raw material belt).

Answer:

Because the nut is tightly into the hot water outlet type, in the process of tightening the nut and bolt the clamping pad, thereby, seals play a role, as long as the stud is long enough, put a line, two would be easy if you Water Leakage, wrapped with raw materials, it will cause the nut a tight end, not to pad clamping, so it is more likely to be Water Leakage.In terms of hard and soft connection, it is hard to connect with raw material and soft adhesive pad!Different uses, but the same effect,
The pipeline connection requires the use of raw materials, water interface generally use rubber pad, because the design interface nut only plays the tension on both sides of the interface distance, if used with raw materials, can be made of raw material with the annular sealing ring pad as the hot water outlet must be used PTFE pad, do not shoot hot, ordinary rubber mat preheating deformation.
Hot water outlet rubber ring, that is the heat up, cold contraction, so that the rubber ring expansion will not leak, and PTFE raw meal belt will not expand, the raw meal belt will not leak in a few days
You must not use raw materials with a rubber ring with the place, but just the opposite, no place to rubber raw materials with, or sooner or later drop out, I tried many times, this is. Aprons and raw materials are used to prevent leakage, but the function is the same, but the use is not the same
