Sharp Thread on bought in part
(OP)
Hi all,
I have a problem with a bought in part that has ultra sharp edges on the thread, 1/8-27 NPT. Does anybody have any suggestions on how to remove the sharp edge as they are causing a problem when screwing into a mating part. Filing/stoning are not an option in this case as this is a delicate pressure transducer and must have a good seal between threads.

It is better to have enough ideas for some of them to be wrong, than to be always right by having no ideas at all.

Personally, I try to avoid using pipe threads for fluid systems. They do not provide reliable connections and are messy. O-ring, flared tube, or compression fittings are far more reliable.
