DESCRIPTION

• An economical, low density grade of polytetraﬂuoroethylene (PTFE)

pipe joint tape for sealing threaded pipe, valves, ﬁttings, accessories

and controls including those made from steel, galvanized and black

iron, brass, copper, aluminum, stainless steel, glass, synthetic rubber,

and all plastics.

• TFE Pipe Joint Tape is weather resistant, ﬂexible, non-stick,

non-ﬂammable, low dielectric constant, chemically inert and usable

at low temperatures. Joints made with TFE Pipe Joint Tape will not

“freeze,” seize, or harden with age.

• Product withstands temperatures from -450° to 500°F and pressures

to 10,000 lbs. psi. Since TFE pipe joint tape is chemically inert, it is

resistant to chemicals, heat, corrosion and impact making it suitable

for many applications including use on chemical processing equipment,

electrical insulation and mechanical applications. The lubricity of

polytetraﬂuoroethylene helps make threaded joints easy to assemble

and disassemble, so product is excellent for applications which are

subject to frequent dismantling. White color for universal use.

APPROVALS & LISTINGS

• This product is not classiﬁed as hazardous in accordance with 29 CFR

OSHA 1910.1200.

APPLICATION / USES

• TFE Pipe Joint Tape can be used for repairs and maintenance of

any threading application in plumbing, mechanical and chemical

processing equipment, or as electrical insulation due to its low

dielectric properties.

• Use TFE Pipe Joint Tape for sealing threaded pipes, valves, ﬁttings

and accessories.
