How far should I be able to screw the drain valve into the drain valve flange? I have tried both valves and flanges and applied a small amount of Lubriplate. The deepest I can get the valves still has half the threads remaining outside of the flange. The drawings show the drain valve nut to be flush or nearly so with the flange. I am afraid that if I use any more force, something will break!!
I am thinking I should find the appropriate tap and run it through the flanges. Is this acceptable and what would this tap size be?
