For those concerned about compatibility between the older "SS" or "SS-II" and the newer "UT" product, I have provided the following Metalbestos Company response and web link from which it was obtained:
Sir,
No adapter is needed since we never changed the coupling design. The testing through Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. changed to include an optional high temperature test. At that time the model designation was changed, but not the product. A few years ago we once again changed the model designation (to the Model UT you reference) but not the basics of the product. There is still the twist lock coupler with the separate locking band, the required 2" air space clearance, etc. so you'll not have any problems getting the pieces to connect.
