As long as you plan on only removing it with a drill, slightly tin the brass fitting. When you crank it in the solder will soften and allow the fitting to be brought up. You will NOT remove the fitting with a wrench unless you use a torch to heat it up past the remelt temperatire of the solder.
On larger threads you can wind fine solder into the thread rather than tin the fitting.
