Hey guys,

I got a new scuba tank for filling my 162ei. I forget if your suppose to put a couple wraps of teflon tape on the brass Morini fill adapters threads before screwing it into the DIN adapter, is the teflon tape needed?

Thanks,
Chris

Nope. The O-ring on the face of the adapter is all you need for a good seal. Just make sure everything is clean. You also don't need a wrench to tighten it onto the tank. Finger tight should be perfectly adequate.
