The left-hand thread must be used with a tube or male nipple with left and right-hand threads available here.
Please note that all fittings have a right-hand thread, unless specified otherwise, such as this one, which has a classic right-hand thread on one side and a left-hand thread on the other, which must be combined with a left-hand male thread.
For ease of use we have created the 2 union kits.
The same model is available in a standard version with two traditional right-hand threads.

Top notch: Really top notch!! I was looking for a left-hand threaded fitting to seal off a radiator, but without success. With the sleeve, the problem was quickly solved.
I recommend it.
Thank you so much!
