Suitable for use with water or fuel lines (in automotive applications) this PTFE tape comes supplied on a plastic spool for easy application. It can be used on all materials including steel alloy plastic copper and ceramics.
PTFE tape provides lubrication and filling properties allowing a deeper seat of the threads to achieve a water tight seal without hardening. It also prevents seizing when being unscrewed.
Top tip: Wrap a minimum of three layers in the direction on the thread (normally clockwise). This will leave no mess a watertight seal and will prevent unwrapping as you tighten.
We do NOT recommend that you use PTFE tape as a long term fix for damaged degrading or incorrectly fitted joints that are already leaking.
