PTFE ribbon 12m x 12mm x 0.075mm

Seal your threaded connections with professional reliability thanks to PTFE tape with a density of 0.35 g/cm³ . This pure Teflon tape is the universal solution for leak-free joints on all your screw connections, whether metal or plastic. Its fine, flexible structure allows it to conform perfectly to the bottom of threads, creating a hermetic barrier against a wide range of fluids and gases.

Total versatility for all fluids and gases

PTFE tape stands out for its exceptional chemical inertness, enabling it to be used in a multitude of industrial and domestic applications:

• Fluid compatibility: Ideal for drinking water, steam, acids, solvents, hydrocarbons and oils.
• Gas and Air: Perfectly suited to compressed air and technical gas networks.
• Food certified: Compliant with requirements for human consumption, it can be used without risk on drinking water networks and food processing equipment.

Extreme technical performance: PN 64 Bar

Designed to withstand the harshest conditions, this tape offers first-rate mechanical characteristics:

• Pressure resistance: Capable of withstanding up to PN 64 bar (at 20°C), it is ideal for high-pressure hydraulic networks.
• Record-breaking thermal range: It retains its sealing properties over an impressive range from -200°C to +250°C.
• Balanced density: Its density of 0.35 g/cm³ offers excellent malleability, while guaranteeing a constant thickness of 0.1 mm for homogeneous thread packing.

Easy installation and clean application

Installation is quick andeasy. Unlike filasse, PTFE tape requires no additional jointing compound and remains clean when handled. For best results, roll the tape in the direction of the thread (clockwise), exerting slight tension. Its 12 mm width is perfectly suited to common plumbing diameters (from 1/4'' to 1''). Once screwed on, it ensures smooth sliding of parts and makes future disassembly much easier without seizing.

Case studies: Irrigation, Heating and Food processing

In a concrete example of a garden pump installation, PTFE tape is used to seal suction connections and prevent air ingress. In hospitals and professional kitchens, for example, its food-safe properties ensure that the sealing of fittings does not release any undesirable substances into the water. Its resistance to hydrocarbons also makes it an indispensable ally for sealing fuel oil or compressed air circuits in workshops.
