I recently purchased the below bulkhead for my 10 gallon Home Depot cooler mash tun. I am getting very little threads on the outside of the cooler to attach my ball valve. Do I have something wrong/out of order? I used a thinner nut instead of the thick one that came with the bulkhead to buy me a few threads.
