Default Sch 80 threads in sch 40 fittings.

Has anyone else had problems with leaks when you screw a Sch 80 PVC
into a sch 40 (white) fitting? It doesn't seem to matter no tape, the
right amount of tape or a **** load of tape, they leak. You can run
them up until there no threads left and they still leak.
I am not sure if this is a vendor problem or just something that
happens. I am gluing them now.



I have never had a problem with that.
