Glass Expansion Helix Locking Screw
![]()
Helix Locking Screw. A replacement Helix Locking Screw. In conjunction with the Helix Seal (NC1417609), this is what secures the nebulizer in Glass Expansion spray chambers and creates the gas tight seal between the nebulizer and the spray chamber. To ensure a gas tight seal replace the seal every 6 months.Damage to the Helix insert of a TFE spray chamber can occur over time due to overtightening of the Helix locking screw. This will happen if the Helix seal is worn and you continue to tighten the locking screw, this results in the nebulizer being pushed further into the spray chamber and the locking screw going past the threads of the Helix insert. Essentially stretching the softer TFE material and slowly deforming the Helix insert. The same can occur if the Helix locking screw is tightened without the nebulizer in place.To only replace the Helix Seal, order NC1417609.Glass Expansion is ISO 9001:2015 certified by AB Certification, No. AU4501-9001
