re-assembling cast iron radiators
i have some corto style radiators that were leaking. so we took them
apart to change out gaskets between each section. we used o rings over
top of reverse thread nipples. does anyone know or have some
suggestions as to a better sealing method. the o rings would tear
creating leaks. thank you. these were originally steam and were
switched to hot water
