DIRECTIONS

  1. Apply PTFE TAPE to male threads as close as possible to end of threads. Hold end of PTFE TAPE firmly and wind clock wise on standard threads. Stretch tape tightly as you wind.
  2. Continue to wind and stretch tape so the tape seats into threads. Wind once around on joints under 2" and twice around on larger sizes.
  3. Complete winding and overlap starting point about 1". Tear tape by pulling in same direction as you were winding. Smooth torn end by running fingers over it. Make connection in usual manner.
