Well if what I am reading on the net is correct the Whitworth threads are not self-sealing and so the snug face fit is essential...thread tape or gasket/o rings are recommended in all gas or liquid application...not an option here...
The praises given to this thread style are akin to the acme in the load transmission.... I never would have believed the subtleties of threading....beginning to understand why tubalcain devoted so many videos on the subject
