PTFE Thread Seal Tapes

We are a recognized leader in the production PTFE thread seal tapes. Our expertise in blending and extruding, combined with the capability of offering a wide range of custom densities, makes our Plastolon® brand stand out from other manufacturers.

Most of what occurs within a strip of PTFE thread sealant tape happens on a microscopic level, and that’s where Plastomer's experience in blending and extruding makes the difference. Our thread sealant tape breaks clean without shredding or warping, identifying it as a product that can be trusted to perform reliably when the job is completed and the pressure is on.

PTFE Thread Seal Tapes

Standard Grade PTFE Thread Seal Tape
Our standard grade PTFE Thread Sealant Tape is for those applications that do not require the sealing properties of a premium grade thread sealant. This is intended to be used for general purpose sealing in pipe threads. The standard density virgin PTFE sealant tape permits quick, clean, economical sealing of male pipe threads of all sizes and reduces the risk of system contamination common with liquid and paste sealants.

High-Density PTFE Thread Seal Tape
There are many reasons to chose our premium high-density sealant tape:

  • Effective sealing, even with small amounts
  • So efficient you can use less tape
  • Tears cleanly...seals neatly
  • Engineered for uniformity

Quick sealing: This premium high density PTFE sealant tape permits quick, clean, economical sealing of male pipe threads of all sizes and eliminates the risk of system contamination common with liquid and paste sealants.

Self-lubricating: The self-lubricating quality of this unsintered, PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) tape makes joints easy to assemble and disassemble, and extends the fatigue life of sealed connections.

Durable: Totally maintenance free premium high density PTFE thread sealant tape is virtually chemically inert, non-toxic, non-absorbent and non-flammable. It will withstand temperatures from -450°F (-240°C) to +500°F (+260°C), and pressures from hard vacuum to 10,000 PSI.

Full Density Yellow Gas Line
