Subject: Re: burst disks
Appearing to be the same could kill you if the threads are incorrect and 
the plug blows out.  You need to verify the thread from a manufacturers
schematic on both the valve and the plug.  I have seen two different
threads work together in as much as they will "fit" but they would never
withstand a the stress of a full load.

Hope this helps.
