1/2" x 520" Thread Seal Tape

Clean-Fit 70200 1/2" x 520" PTFE Thread Seal Tape – General Purpose for Threaded Joint Sealing

The Clean-Fit 70200 is a general-purpose thread seal tape manufactured from 100% virgin PTFE. Designed for sealing threaded metal or plastic pipe joints, this tape delivers consistent performance in plumbing, hydraulic, pneumatic, and industrial process systems. The 1/2-inch width and 520-inch length make it suitable for standard residential and commercial pipe sizes.

This tape is chemically inert, non-hardening, and resists high pressure and extreme temperatures, providing a reliable seal while allowing for disassembly without thread damage. It is intended for non-oxygen applications including water, steam, air, and hydraulic fluids.
