Imagine if you will, that you are a manufacturer... Lets say of valves for example... (imagine that, a plumbing reference) Lets say that you have those valves manufactured in multiple plants, some in europe, some in asia, some in north america... Wouldn't you have them made all absolutly identical when you're talking about one type and size of valve?... Wouldn't that make sence?...
Apparently not... I have no less than three different flavors of the 1/2" sweat connection ball valve... I mean they all fit 1/2" tube, and they all sut off with a quarter turn, but the packing nut is a different size based on where they are made...
Aren't standards a lovely thing...
