About Sealant Flexibility

Non-Hardening Thread Sealants with PTFE
PTFE provides a slippery surface that keeps threads from binding. These sealants never fully harden, remaining pliable enough to self-heal and stop leaks before they start, so they’re often used in high-vibration applications that could cause standard thread sealants to fail. Since they have low locking strength, these sealants can be adjusted without tools.
To adhere to safety standards for drinking water systems, use sealants that meet NSF/ANSI 61.
