    Those type of cleats on the bottom are usually on something with internal spring pressure to keep it from vibrating loose.

    Looks like reverse thread too...judging by the direction of the cleats. Possibly gas related then?

    no prob not high pressure since the handle/lever just looks like it can be flipped up or down.
