How old is a good question. Also, is it possible that it could be something that the installer used to "lube" the gaskets at installation time?

Visited a site in West Texas today that has experienced leaks and pushoffs several times over the past few years. I'm not fixated on this; there is quite the lineup of suspects for this one - pump on/off hammer due to fire brigade training exercises, corrosion of restraints, bad install, all under consideration. But they've had an unusually high occurrence rate of MJ joint failures. >> >> Steve L. >> >> Lord (Muncy), I apologize for droppin' potty mouth on the Forum and be with the starving pygmies down in New Guinea, amen. >> _______________________________________________ >> Sprinklerforum mailing list >> [email protected] >> http://lists.firesprinkler.org/listinfo.cgi/sprinklerforum-firesprinkler.org > _______________________________________________ > Sprinklerforum mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.firesprinkler.org/listinfo.cgi/sprinklerforum-firesprinkler.org _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list [email protected] http://lists.firesprinkler.org/listinfo.cgi/sprinklerforum-firesprinkler.org
