Threading gas pipe is the process of cutting threads into the end of a pipe so that it can be connected to a fitting. This is necessary for the installation of gas appliances, such as stoves, ovens, and water heaters. There are two main types of gas pipe threading: electrical and mechanical. Electrical threading is done using a power tool, while mechanical threading is done by hand.
Electrical threading is the faster and easier of the two methods, but it requires a special tool. Mechanical threading is more labor-intensive, but it does not require any special tools. Both methods can be used to create a strong and durable connection between a gas pipe and a fitting.
