How do I select the right PTFE tape for an oxygen or specialty gas application?

Selection should consider the gas type, oxygen concentration, operating pressure, temperature, fitting material, thread size, and required certification or testing. Contact Foreverseal® with your operating conditions for specification support.

How should PTFE thread seal tape be applied in oxygen and specialty gas systems?

Apply the tape only to clean, dry male threads and wrap it in the direction of thread engagement. Keep the first thread clear and prevent loose PTFE fragments from entering the gas system. Oxygen-service installations should follow applicable system procedures and safety requirements.

Depending on the application, Foreverseal® PTFE thread seal tape can be used with common threaded metal fittings, including stainless steel, brass, copper alloys, and other compatible piping materials used in specialty gas and oxygen systems.

Can PTFE thread seal tape be used with specialty and high-purity gases?

PTFE thread seal tape can be used for many threaded connections in specialty and high-purity gas systems when the tape specification is compatible with the gas, pressure, temperature, fitting material, and applicable industry requirements.
