Yes, PTFE thread seal tape can be used on compatible threaded connections in natural gas and LPG systems when the tape is specifically designed and approved for the intended gas application.
Selection should take into account the gas medium, fitting material, thread type, operating pressure, temperature, and applicable local regulations.
Because gas systems are safety-critical applications, installers should always follow the product approval conditions, system requirements, and applicable installation standards.
