Water heater plastic plug cross thread
So this is my 3rd camper w the same Atwood water heater w/plastic plug. It's terribly located to get a wrench to tighten it, and it cross threads everytime I try to reinstall it. There has to be a way...

Why not use a galvanized plug? Pipe tape seals the connection and cross threading is no longer a regular issue.
Because Atwood water heater tank is aluminum......drain hole bung is aluminum...threads are aluminum
That is reason drain plug is high temp nylon....so IT gets messed up vs the aluminum threads
