What is "thread seal tape"?

Thread seal tape, also known as plumber’s tape or Teflon tape, is a thin, flexible tape used to seal the threads of pipe fittings to prevent leaks. It is not sticky but has a smooth surface that helps create a tight seal when wrapped around the male threads of a pipe before connecting it to a female fitting. The tape prevents water, gas, or other substances from leaking through the connection. Thread seal tape is typically made of plastic or Teflon, which is resistant to high temperatures and pressure. It is commonly used in plumbing, heating, and gas installations to ensure leak-proof connections.
