Thread Sealant Tape

Made of PTFE, this tape has a slippery surface that keeps threads from binding to make parts easy to assemble.

PTFE tape with graphite creates a better seal between threads than plain PTFE tape, which helps prevent fluid and gas leaks. The graphite attaches to the PTFE, so this tape does not emit harmful VOCs.

Glass Sealing Rope

Press this pliable rope into place to hold glass in window frames and seal leaks. It’s also known as glazing compound. The rope is non-sagging, so it won't drip from vertical and overhead surfaces. It’s good for use between dissimilar materials and in environments with wide temperature fluctuation. Remove the peel-off liner to install.
