Leaking 1/2" union -- face on a lathe?
Awl --
It's an old-style union (flat mating faces), immediately on my compressor, with the controls and fittings on that. Should be a quick job, if it will work... will save me a trip to the store. Plus it would be but another DIY thrill.... Alternatively, can I just putty/dope the faces up? I know this is a no-no in water plumbing, but mebbe it's an OK stopgap here? Even tho the psi are higher -- 120 air vs. 60 or less for water. -- EA |
