Re: BFPSDNL I'm looking for a replacement for an Arrowhead PK1390. The description on this one describes the threads as Inlet: 3/4" FPT (Female Pipe Thread) Outlet: 3/4" MPT (Male Pipe Thread) The picture looks like it has the correct outlet "Garden Hose Thread" and it looks like the inlet thread is a fine thread, which I need, not FPT. Can you please verify? Thank you,
Hello! I am very glad you asked this question. We re-did our website recently and it looks like there was a major error on all our vacuum breaker hose bibbs. I'm sorry for the confusion! This product is garden hose thread on both ends.
