Why Threads Are Not Watertight

[@gooberbuster8892]

I love the contrast between the calm voice acting and the erratic edm music at the end

[@KnowArt]

thanks :)

[@ElectricNed]

I love it, it took me on an unexpected musical journey and who wouldn't be down for that?

Bro chose the hardest music for a science lesson

[@realsnezki]

for real tho

[@Blast-Forward]

it's hilarious 😄

[@Unc3]

I didnt expect my day to contain an MLG styled demo of bottlecap yet here we are

[@Gr4ndpa]

This is what I'm watching instead of studying for my maths exam that is tomorrow.

[@KnowArt]

good luck

[@TheSuperNova994]

how did it go?

We need an update on this, Gr4andpa.

[@zekiah2]

Black iron gas pipe is an example of threads that seal. The Teflon and pipe dope is used as a lubricant to allow the pipe to be tightened until the iron of the threads conform to each other creating an airtight seal that is beyond the capability of Teflon tape

[@KnowArt]

cool

[@nirodper]

all threaded pipes don't seal unless they have a tapered thread, or have a sealant like teflon tape

[@jacobhargiss9909]

​@@nirodper what he's saying here is that because the metal is soft, when it is screwed on the threads warp and conform to make a complete seal.

[@BlueIron64]

Also luer threads

[@UnitaryV]

Brb, gonna go buy a black-iron-gas-pipe bottle of coke.

[@mindtreat]

less than 2 minutes, straight to the point, accurate thumbnail and no clickbait title. I had to double check if I was still browsing youtube. Give this man a medal

[@KnowArt]

glad it's still appreciated

[@Yoraiz3rt]

It was very straight to the point, no intro, no tiktok stuff (like a guy pointing the finger at the title), and no hesitation, I have respect for you.

[@KnowArt]

thanks a lot :)

[@bailey125]

But why the techno colours and pulsating? Completely unnecessary.

[@Netukom]

​@@bailey125 Nah, that was just to add a little spice

[@Ev-wj3lm]

@@bailey125 yeah that was more tiktok than yt

[@cubertmiso]

straight to the point.. which is wrong in this case.

[@0x7d69]

Dude why the hell are these so good, subscribed! If I can make a recommendation, the music is a tad bit loud and distracting, but otherwise love it!

[@KnowArt]

Welcome! Thanks for the feedback

[@poultrypants]

@@KnowArt Yes I liked the sound design and I think that overall the music was pretty good, but I agree that at times it felt a bit over the top, such as when the screen was shaking and the colors were changing. But great video nonetheless!

[@_frixx_746]

@@KnowArtpersonally I like the beat sounds pretty good but I do agree maybe not have it as loud while explaining👌 maybe still have that for small sections like this perhaps a small screen at the end with your other socials in a similar style of logo with your videos

[@ChemEDan]

@@poultrypants Thought I was tripping LOL

[@zzxd7720]

They can be watertight, if it is a tapered thread.

[@robertwall223]

We make these at my work for oil and hydraulic linkages

[@MonkeNeuronActivated]

The dynamic music design in this goes super hard for a demonstration of why threads aren't water/airtight, and I'm here for it 💀 You deserve much more traffic, 132 comments does not do it justice. Keep doing what you do, you're doing it better than anyone else.

[@KnowArt]

thanks a lot

[@ZeDitto3]

The music at 1:00, while hype and funny, does make it genuinely hard to understand the narration.

[@Kalvinjj]

I remember when near all of the PET bottle caps had that little seal part separately inside it, instead of being a part of the cap itself like now. I can bet the engineers that came up with that little money saver are absolutely loved by all bottle manufacturers.

[@KnowArt]

I bet they got peanuts for what are HUGE savings for the manufacturer

[@timseguine2]

Oh yeah.... nearly forgot about those.

[@CrystalClear51]

i love how you add beats to certain movements in the video, kind of like bill wurtz videos but way less chaotic, awesome :)

[@KnowArt]

great to hear that it doesn't go unnoticed. Bill Wurtz has been a big inspiration

[@taosamundo]

I love how your videos explain how small things I've never thought about work It just amazes me how every single thing had some amount of engineers(im assuming its them who work on these things?) develop how to make them work

[@KnowArt]

thanks! Great to hear that a spark has been lit and that you're looking around and noticing the engineering in everything. That's basically my goal

[@EGRJ]

Look up the history of Ballpoint pens.

[@Ardeact]

This video is nuts, the sound design is hilariously good

[@ProfessionalYoutubeCommenter]

"Wow I really hope disco music doesn't start playing and taking over this video!" The disco music:

[@KingMB_XJ_Official]

1:05 why did this become a music video and why can't every video be like this?

[@MonkeNeuronActivated]

The dynamic music design of TheJustinator (in the description) honestly makes this video perfect Since I know the creator of this channel will likely see this : thank you for highlighting such a talented artist. I have never been so hyped to re-watch a thread air-tightness demonstration. Keyword 're-watch' 💀

[@TheJustinator]

@@MonkeNeuronActivated thanks

[@user-jk2zm7uq5s]

Most jars have a vacuum which surely helps keeping them not only water- but also airtight.

[@jaredlancaster4137]

Tapered threads, used on pipe, can seal in the threads without any sealant or a "corking" cap.

[@Azukaae]

I prefer this kind of format rather than shorts. Shorts are just bad, compressing videos too much so that we will often miss other small informations.

[@BeatInMySkull]

Narrator: *Sophisticated and informative* The video: *BUMPING*

[@user-yp5ko8us9j]

So basically we can just use corks for everything. 16th century mad scientist experiment vibes.

[@4deemi]

this video did NOT need that banger of a music

[@kubectlgetpo]

Teflon tape also doesnt fill the gap! Its used for dry lubrication for ensuring tightening is smooth and it goes all the way.

[@EmorettOfficial]

Instructions unclear, I’m now partying at a water bottle-themed rave

[@NoxBotTheRapGod]

It's the Bill Wurtz of science (Science of the world I guess)

[@YashAtishay]

I love how the video was crisp, to the point, no begging for like and subscribe and whatever, short to the point, amazing

[@nottsoserious]

You have such a gentle and calming voice.

[@haroothy]

That's what I call quality content, love it !

[@Kick-The-P.A.]

You gotta make a soundtrack for the videos and the shorts. The sounds and the music is just fire.

[@KnowArt]

yeah, there are some thoughts bouncing around to make them public

[@rafa_br34]

The explanation: chill and calm The music: 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@burakkaracuban5665]

Bro what’s up with the music 😭😭😂😂

[@VicJang]

Holy crap, this is a perfect video for a topic like this. You get straight to the answer with no intro or any nonsense, and the answer itself is incredibly clear. Love this.

[@KnowArt]

thanks

[@BierBart12]

I just lost 3 jars of perfectly good beef and chicken broth because the company that made them clearly didn't know about this The lids don't seal at all

[@Tae-Joon-Park]

hmmm this is interesting but why wont the cap just get pushed off? *explains why* damn this guy is cool

[@dhillaz]

Excellent quality video, especially the illustrations, and meme bass drop was 👌. May the algorithm bless you with the attention this deserves...

[@AndroidNoir-L06k]

Who knew listening to a bottle caps explanation could be such a banger.

[@3d-flushedemoji]

this is the first video i've seen on your channel and i'm already feeling a creeping addiction to dubstep explain videos coming on

[@ZadakLeader]

Makes sense, that's why the air escapes as soon as you start to unscrew it

[@asaizun]

came for the info, stayed for the beat 💯🔥🥶

[@core36]

The only problem I had with this video was the music at the end making the thing about the forces difficult to hear.

[@KnowArt]

thanks for the feedback

[@jarekso11]

I LOVE THIS CHANNEL. It was my first film and it made a huge impression on me. All my life I thought threads retained water and I consider myself well versed in the science.

[@yanivproselkov1025]

This video feels like being extremely tired but still buzzing on 3 coffees

[@helterskelter416]

0:25 teflon tape is NOT to create a seal, it's to overcome friction toallow the fitting to be turned further so that the mating surfaces (the ends of the pipe/fitting) seat properly. teflon tape will not form a seal, nor will anything else you do to the threads, unless the threads are specifically designed to create the seal, in which case you would not be using teflon tape. the seal is always created solely by the intended mating surfaces.

[@charmio]

Thats simply not true. While it does indeed act as a lubricant, its primary purpose is a filler that fills the gap between threads to create a secure seal to prevent leaks. If it was unable to achieve this then you wouldn't be able to use it to create a watertight seal on non-tapered threads, which you can.

[@roywarriner8441]

NPT stands for national pipe taper, locking the taper makes a metal to metal seal, teflon tape or pipe thread lubricant is just that, a lubricant. NPS is national pipe straight, where the seal is attained with the use of a nut on the straight thread that compresses a washer against a sealing surface. Used mostly for connections to appliances such as radiators or boilers. I have 40 years experience in pipe trades working in commercial and industrial construction. I'm a licensed plumber, steamfitter and gas and oil pipe fitter. You can't argue with that.

[@KnowArt]

oddly specific, but I'll take it

[@GameFuMaster]

the increasingly dramatic music with the continuously calm voice got me lol

[@artemv3160]

[@mdstevens0612]

Man, this video was great. To the point, clear visual aid, music was a little in your face but at least wasn't ear splittingly loud. Man, more of youtube needs to be like this.

[@unubun]

I just love how the song became harder at the end 😭

[@CausticLemons7]

Small details like this make such an important difference. Thanks!

[@Azukaae]

1:03 that beating to the music is so random and absurd, I don't know but I laughed

[@poobert2128]

Severely underrated channel. I bet with catchier music and better thumbnails it would blow up. I was surprised the channel didn’t have like 1.5m subs

[@KnowArt]

[@AL_O0]

These videos are so cool and well done, love your channel, keep up Also can i suggest a new video idea? "Why saw teeth are wider than the back of the saw" it kinda blew my mind the first time i learned about it, a sharp steak knife won't cut wood precisely because it is sharp and so the teeth are thinner than the blade

[@KnowArt]

oh! good idea! I'll put it on my list.

[@Zephyrus88PL]
