Is the WE-NT angled screw joint, carbon steel compatible with both hydraulic and pneumatic systems and sealed using Teflon tape or anaerobic sealant?

Yes. The WE-NT angled screw joint, carbon steel is compatible with both hydraulic and pneumatic systems. It uses a 24° DIN 2353 socket with external metric and external NPT threads, and sealing is achieved directly on the thread using Teflon tape or an anaerobic sealant. Its carbon steel construction, galvanised finish and 2.5:1 safety factor make it suitable for demanding elevated-pressure applications across both fluid types.

Can the WE-NT angled screw joint, carbon steel be used with different thread sealants (e.g., PTFE tape vs. anaerobic sealant) without affecting its pressure rating or safety factor?

Yes — the WE-NT angled screw joint, carbon steel can be used with different thread sealants (e.g., PTFE tape or anaerobic sealant) without altering its specified pressure rating or safety factor, provided the sealant is applied correctly and is compatible with the system media and temperature range. The fitting’s sealing is achieved on the thread (as stated), and its design, material and 2.5:1 safety factor account for normal use with common thread sealants. However, observe these practical precautions: - Use the correct type and amount of PTFE tape (thin, wrapped in the direction of thread engagement) or a manufacturer-recommended anaerobic sealant to avoid excess material that could prevent proper metal‑to‑metal engagement or contaminate the system. - Ensure the chosen sealant is chemically compatible with the hydraulic/pneumatic fluid and rated for the system’s maximum temperature and pressure. - Follow recommended torque values and assembly procedures so the mechanical load and sealing surface integrity are maintained. - Inspect fittings after assembly for leaks and recheck after initial pressurization. When these guidelines are followed, changing between PTFE tape and an appropriate anaerobic sealant will not affect the WE-NT angled screw joint, carbon steel pressure rating or its 2.5:1 safety factor.
