      Reverse threads on gas cylinders are (as far as I know) only used for flammables.

        I was sure there was a reason, I just never worked in the field long enough to learn or ask why

        Thanks 🫡

          They’re made that way so you don’t accidentally connect a gas cylinder to a water line.

      I heard from a gas guy that this is to ensure that only connectors made for gas usage are used and people don’t build crazy contraptions with plumber gear for flammable gases… Kinda makes sense.
