Using a HH.357 with a SB

[Decidion]

Hmm...I can't seem to screw my HH.357s down far enough into the SB to get a connection to get a 501 long barrel, 1.5 Ohm HH.357 to work. It binds up and I cannot screw it in any further. I don't want to really wrench it on because I might break the atty, the SB atty connector or not be able to get it off.

The HH.357s work on my other mod just fine, and a CCV Resurrector works fine in the SB (it screws all the way in like it should).

Anyone else have this problem?

The connector on the SB is tighter tolerance. If I open them too much some cartos will not stay in after a few months. Best thing to do is to lightly sand the atomizer threads with 500 grit or finer sandpaper. I think it best to modify the atty(disposable) than to modify the SB. I get some of my smoketech cartos that will be a bugger to get to thread in. When I build them that is what I use to test them all. So many manufactures hold different tolernaces and none of them are ever the same.. even from the same manufacture. I get some threads that are on the large side of the tolernace and others on the small side of tolernace. We are taking about a .0015-.002 difference from the small to large. When threads are involed, that is a lot!

So, what you're saying is that you are building a connector that can be adjusted clamp style that can fit any variation of atty/carto out there, right?! Atleast, that's what I got from what you said to Decidion.

Thanks for the info Chad...I guess I had the false assumption that all 501 threads were created equal.

I'll just save the HH.357s for my other mod and use that box of LR cartos I have for the SB. I plan on getting a tank anyway, which won't work with a HH.357 atty.

odd my hh357 long barrel 510 fits fine on my sb mmmm

All I use are these attys and I have never had a problem with them screwing into my SB. Not sure what's wrong with yours.

The difference is in the 510 connector and atomizer. If either one is off by .0005in it can cause a tight thread.
