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.

Drip-Free Non-Hardening Thread Sealants with PTFE
Apply these thread sealant sticks without a mess. They contain PTFE, which 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. They meet NSF/ANSI 61 for use with drinking water.

Thread Sealants with PTFE
PTFE provides a slippery surface that keeps threads from binding. These sealants are anaerobic, so they don’t begin to harden until coated surfaces are threaded together, blocking exposure to air.
Sealants with low locking strength prevent threads from loosening due to vibration and can be adjusted without tools.
Sealants with medium locking strength prevent threads from loosening due to vibration and shock. They require a hand tool to unthread.
To adhere to safety standards for drinking water systems, use sealants that meet NSF/ANSI 61.

Thread Sealants for Oxygen Systems
Completely free of oil and chemically inert, these sealants are safe to use with wet and dry oxygen systems. They contain PTFE, which provides a slippery surface that keeps threads from binding. These sealants are non-hardening, 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.
The sealant in a tube is a good alternative to thread sealant tape—like tape, it forms PTFE strings between tightened threads, but excess material liquefies, so it won’t clog system components downstream.
