Before you consider re tapping the threads re check to make sure you have the right sized anode rod.
Rv water heater anode thread size.
I reached out to my contact at suburban and they advised me that your water heater has a 3 4 npt national pipe threading and it has 12 threads inch.
What size type anode do i need for my hot water tank.
We have detailed the popular brands and storage capacities and referenced the best choice of anode.
You ll need a 3 4 inch npt thread chaser since the replacement anode will likely have a tapered pipe thread.
Plumbonline have put together a comparison table see below to make selecting your anode as simple as possible as in most cases the owner manual for your hot water service does not detail the size.
