PTFE Thread Seal Tape (10-Roll Pack) is a professional-grade plumber’s tape for sealing threaded joints on pipes and fittings, including potable water systems. The PTFE film acts as a deformable filler and dry lubricant, helping threads seat fully to create reliable, air- and watertight joints. Each roll is supplied on a tidy spool with a peel-off start tab for clean, tangle-free application.
