Is this product good for putting on automatic Chlorinator Threads, i.e. for parts that have to be opened and closed regularly?

this product works anywhere a seal is required and works well. Reasonably priced compared to the minuscule amount the pool places are trying to sell you.

This is the ONLY lube that we will use on our pool parts. It makes a great seal but also allows the parts to be opened and closed easily.

I' am probably not qualified to answer that question but if it was me I would probably give it a try. the great thing about this product is that it is not petroleum based and does not distort rubber products like 0-rings

I would say yes. We put it around the top of our pump that we have to screw on and off to change filters and it really helped to make it easier to twist on and off.

Yes, it is used by most pool installers excelent lubricant specialty for chlorine environment

Yes. I really love this machine. Self-threader no longer works, but everything else is working fine.

I can not answer this question, as I use the flotec pump intermittently to prime an inground pool circuit

Hello Paul, I haven't heard that term for awhile. I was a toolmaker. It has a standard thread used by refrigerant cans in all states but CA. There is an adapter for the use of CA self healing cans available. Once again, it has a standard vee thread type female thread that fit directly on a standard r-134a can of refrigerant. I hope this helps.

This tool is the right one for this job. The thread that comes with it is fairly heavy. This may or may not be the look you are trying to achieve. You could use other threads.

If you mean wrap the threads with teflon tape, I always do that with any water connection. Works for me.

Probably... If you connect them inline (dirty water &gt; sand filter/pump &gt; cartridge filter/pump/chlorine generator &gt; pool) it should work fine. You could remove the paper filter from the cartridge filter/pump to reduce flow restriction, and add a paper filter only if you get a lot of fine particulate suspended matter that the sand filter is missing. Alternately, return the paper filter/generator and get the generator-only unit. My only problem with Intex chlorine generator in the past has been when the flow dropped below the minimum required by the generator -- usually caused by a weak pump or a clogged paper filter. Paper filters with a chlorine generator resolved half of the problem -- fluxuating chlorine levels -- but not the issue of clogging filters. I successfully ran the Intex 12" sand filter/pump with the stand-alone chlorine generator with great results, and no flow problems -- great solution for a 15'x42" round. (This, of course, did not include the additional pump on your chlorine generator...) My current solution is the 14" Intex pump/sand filter/generator.

Yeah works pretty good. It gets tighter the more pressure you put on it. As long as the pulley Is clean and not covered in coolant it should work fine. I use it to hold pulleys all the time

I don't know, but our pool is a chlorinated pool. This is a carbon seal so it should work for any application.

I didn't have any issues with improper threads on any of the items...I think I got my unit about a year ago...Hope this information helps. Jerry

Yes. As long as you follow the directions precisely. Tons of videos on YouTube.com for it. Use the plastic bobbin for bottom threading. Or SLIGHTLY clamp around the rim of the metal bobbins. If you don't, the top thread likes to get caught under the lip and cause HUGE amounts of thread to knot up and lock up your machine. Ugh.

I can't comment about the codes and whether it would pass inspection, I used it for a DIY outdoor shower. But I didn't have any problems finding fittings that matched the threading. I ended up not using the 1/2" to 3/4" adapter that it came with and instead just used a 1/2" pex to 3/4" male threaded adapter because it was easier for my particular needs.

I had to drill and tap for another thread size,this was definetly worth doing because this thing works great !!!! wish I had got one years ago!!

We have an inline chlorine dispenser.. We used to put them in the skimmer baskets but a pool repair person told us not to do that as it can damage the skimmers.

A chlorinator works by virtue of the chemistry between electrolysis, salt and water, it is has nothing to do with the pool brand. The only consideration is the type of connections. Intex tends to use its own fittings but it is not difficult to convert the inlet and outlet to match any plumbing combination. Youtube has every imaginable instruction guide to accomplish this.

Any household pump would be rated for chlorinated water in concentrations safe for human contact. If you are using it in a heating system, I would be more concerned about how hot your water will be and if the pump is rated for that temperature.

Yes it is. Got spare ones from Amazon, no problem. Easy to replace, just be sure to glue it down in place and keep chlorine back-flow to a minimum. Good luck
