What do you all use to fill in light saw damage to the female threads? It will be connected to water.

    Anaerobic threadlockers work quite well for this. Loctite 565, 567, 245, and a few others.

    Thanks guys. Threads are good. Factory plug had much less meat than I thought it would. Barely touched it. Will just go cold chisel and hammer next time.
