What is the temperature rating of P.T.F.E. thread seal tape?
What is the temperature rating of P.T.F.E. thread seal tape?
P.T.F.E. thread seal tapes can withstand extreme temperatures. We carry tapes with two different temperature ranges as detailed below. The first group has a temperature range of -310°F to 536°F (-190°C to 280°C) and the second group of specialty PTFE tapes have a temperature range of -450°F to 550°F (-268°C to 288°C).
Group #1
P.T.F.E. THREAD SEAL TAPE
Thread seal tape can be used for potable & non-potable water, most chemicals, oxygen, gas, hydraulic and high-pressure lines. The temperature range is -310°F to 536°F (-190°C to 280°C). The thickness specification is to MIL-T-27730A.![](https://support.boshart.com/hs-fs/hubfs/undefined-Jan-15-2024-05-36-07-6923-PM.png?width=591&height=165&name=undefined-Jan-15-2024-05-36-07-6923-PM.png)
