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.

VOC (volatile organic compounds) regulations restrict sales of sealants that cannot be sold to the listed jurisdictions/areas.

To adhere to safety standards for drinking water systems, use sealants that meet NSF/ANSI 61.

Sealants that cannot be sold to the listed regions are restricted due to local VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) regulations.

Wind this multifilament cord into the grooves of tapered pipe threads to quickly create a seal. It can be applied to metal pipe up to size 4 NPT and plastic pipe up to size 1 1/2 NPT. The container includes a built-in cutter for fast application. After tightening, pipe can be loosened up to an eighth of a turn without leaking. Sealant meets NSF/ANSI 61 for use with drinking water in systems up to 180° F.
