Do they make a metric Loc-Line? I've only seen it in NPT thread.
Yes - this was why I was trying to get down to 1 inch or 3/4” with reducers and converters - but if a 3/4” will fit/work anyways I might as well go that route

Another reason i suggested a standard 3/4" threaded bulkhead lol.
Dont know if they sell locline in other thread pitches but i did notice it has other mainstream industrial uses for processing so im sure its available somewhere in another thread standard.

I work in a shop with equipment made in Germany and Israel... the Loc-Line on those machines is NPT. Maybe someone with a 3D printer could make something although it probably wouldn't be as durable.

On my returns, I used a 1"-> ¾" pvc reducer bushing to a npt 3/4" locline adapter. All on the water side of my slip x thread bulkhead.
