seal tapes

Sealing tapes are used to seal conical threaded and flanged pipe connections. Make sure that the sealant will not enter the pipe or valve to avoid clogs. When Teflon tape or other thread sealants have been applied, tighten the connection in one direction only. Avoid turning it back, even slightly, to assure maximum sealant properties. Alternatively, a liquid thread sealant can be used.
