Abstract
A pressure gauge attachment system includes a thread having a thread stop as well as at least one engagement element that is configured to defect during installation and effectively provide an interlock after installation. The system is suited for rapid and simplified installation, inherently provides automatic orientation of a pressure indicator, enhanced sustainability, flexibility in manufacturing, as well as provides a secure, reliable fluid-tight sealed connection that does not rely upon a pipe thread, additional couplings or clamping nuts for retention.
