FAQ
Before Curing: Wipe external excess with a lint-free cloth dipped in cleaner.
After Curing: Remove mechanically (scraping required).
Initial Cure: Surface-dry in ≈10–30 minutes at 25°C (varies by brand).
Full Cure: Typically requires 24 hours to reach maximum strength.
Temperature Impact: Curing time doubles per 10°C drop (e.g., 48 hours at 15°C).
Large Thread Gaps: If gap >0.25mm, use high-viscosity sealant or combine with solid gaskets.
Yes. Traditional thread seal tape ages over time. Aged tape experiences reduced sealing performance, tends to shrink (creating gaps), and increases the risk of leaks. After prolonged use, it may also break into small fragments that can enter pipes, potentially clogging valves or delicate components.
Typical Lifespan:Theoretical lifespan: Approximately 5-8 years.
Actual lifespan: May require earlier replacement due to influencing factors such as temperature, media corrosion, and mechanical vibration.
Replace Immediately if Any of the Following Occur
Leaks: Slow seepage of water or gas at connection points.
Hardening & Brittleness: Tape becomes stiff, brittle, crumbly, or loses elasticity.
Water Contamination: Aged tape shedding fragments contaminates water quality (especially critical for potable water lines).
What is the function of thread seal tape (PTFE tape)?
To fill thread gaps and prevent water/gas leaks. It is suitable for water pipes, gas pipes, etc. (Prohibited for use with oxygen systems and hydraulic systems).
