Teflon Tape

Teflon Tape, also known as PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) tape or plumber’s tape, is a thin, white, non-adhesive film used primarily in plumbing to seal threaded pipe joints. It provides a watertight seal and helps prevent leaks by filling in the microscopic gaps between threaded metal or plastic fittings. Teflon tape is highly valued for its chemical resistance, non-stick properties, and ability to withstand a wide range of temperatures and pressures. It is easy to apply—simply wrapped clockwise around the male threads of a pipe before connecting it to a female fitting. The tape reduces friction during assembly and disassembly, helping to prevent -

- seizing or galling of threads. There are different types of Teflon tape, including standard white tape for general plumbing, yellow gas-rated tape for gas lines, and pink or green heavy-duty tape for specific industrial or potable water applications.

Key Features of a Teflon Tape :

  • Excellent Sealing Capability: Provides a reliable, watertight seal on threaded pipe joints.
  • Chemical Resistance: Resistant to most chemicals, acids, and solvents, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
  • High Temperature Tolerance: Can withstand extreme temperatures, commonly from -268°C to +260°C.
  • Non-Adhesive and Non-Stick: Does not bond to surfaces, allowing easy adjustment or disassembly of joints.
  • Low Friction: Reduces friction between threaded components to ease tightening and prevent thread galling.
  • Easy to Use: Simple application by wrapping around pipe threads; no special tools required.
  • Multiple Grades and Colors: Available in different types for specific uses: white for general plumbing, yellow for gas lines, pink/green for heavy-duty or potable water use.
  • Corrosion Prevention: Helps to protect metal threads from corrosion by sealing out moisture and air.
