Ball Lock Post Bulkhead - Gas In

BEST ANSWER: My attempt was to sandwich my post between a predrilled triclover disk. My problem, and I was not successful so far, is that my holes drilled in the triclover disk are too close together. I'm using a ss coupler that has a 1/4" female end, the other end is male 3/8". The threads are NPT. The female thread is tapered and the male thread is straight. A 1/4" NPT will tighten and seal on the that end with teflon tape, the male end needs a 3/8" NPT nut and a gasket to seal. I'm not sure. but I believe the flare fitting is a different thread. It would be a force fit, and you would probably destroy the threads for future use. I would suggest going to your big box store and testing some of the stock fittings on the mounted thread guides to see what fits properly. If you only get a 1/4 turn or less on turning by hand, the thread aren't compatible. To solve my problem, I'm going to have to drill another triclover disk with the holes spaced wider apart to allow a nut and o-ring gasket seal on the bottom side of the disk. Good luck.

NPT/NPS and BSP threads are not compatible due to the differences in their thread forms, and not just the fact that most sizes have a different pitch.

No, 1/4” NPT is not the same as 1/4” flare.
