PTFE TEFLON TAPE, WHITE - 1/2" x 260"

White virgin PTFE thread seal tape (Teflon tape) for sealing tapered pipe threads on plumbing, gas, and industrial connections. Wraps onto male threads and conforms under joint compression to fill the helical leak path between mating threads.

  • 1/2" x 260" roll on plastic spool
  • Made of virgin white PTFE (Teflon) - non-yellow, non-contaminated film
  • 0.4 density, 0.003" thick (3 mil) - standard plumber's-grade tape
  • Over 50% elongation and chemically inert
  • Tolerates -400 deg F to +500 deg F service temperature
  • Nonflammable; suitable for oxygen and potable water systems
  • Permits easy disassembly - threads back off without seized compound
  • Meets Federal Specification T-27730A

Tip: 1/2" width is the homeowner standard for water-supply threaded joints - faucet shanks, hose-bib stems, washing-machine valves, and small irrigation fittings. 260" (about 22 Ft) is the pocket-roll size, enough for a faucet swap, a few hose-bib repairs, or a sink-supply replacement. Wrap 3 to 5 turns clockwise around the male threads in the direction the fitting tightens.
