Tangit UNI-LOCK Sealing Thread 160m

Tangit UNI-LOCK Sealing Thread 160m is a professional-grade solution engineered for the reliable sealing of threaded pipe connections. This high-quality thread is designed to provide an immediate, leak-proof seal in both metal and plastic piping systems, ensuring long-term durability and performance. With a generous length of 160 meters, it offers a practical and efficient alternative to traditional sealing methods like hemp or PTFE tape, simplifying the installation process for various plumbing and heating applications.

Advantages

The primary benefit of using Tangit UNI-LOCK is its versatility, as it is fully compatible with a wide range of metal and plastic threads. It allows for easy adjustment of fittings after assembly without compromising the integrity of the seal, which is a significant advantage during complex installations. The material provides immediate pressure resistance, meaning systems can be tested and put into operation without waiting for curing times. Furthermore, its DVGW certification guarantees that it meets rigorous safety and quality standards for use in water and gas distribution systems.

Suitable for

• Sealing metal threaded pipe connections
• Sealing plastic threaded pipe connections
• Water supply systems
• Gas distribution systems
• Plumbing and heating maintenance

When it may not be suitable

This sealing thread is intended for standard threaded pipe connections and may not be suitable for specialized industrial applications involving highly aggressive chemicals or extreme temperatures outside the specified operating range. It should not be used on pipe threads that do not meet standard sizing requirements.

Key specifications

• Length: 160 meters
• Material compatibility: Metal and plastic threads
• Certification: DVGW certified
• Application: Water and gas systems

How to use

To use Tangit UNI-LOCK, ensure the pipe threads are clean and free of debris. Wrap the thread directly from the dispenser onto the pipe threads, starting from the end of the pipe and working in the direction of the thread. It is not necessary to follow the thread grooves precisely; wrapping in a crisscross pattern is recommended for optimal sealing. Once the desired amount of thread is applied, cut it using the integrated cutter on the dispenser and tighten the fitting to the required position.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the compatibility of your pipe material
• Ensure the thread size is within standard plumbing specifications
• Check local regulations regarding gas and water system installations

Usage recommendations

For the best results, ensure that the thread is applied with sufficient tension and that the number of wraps is adjusted according to the diameter of the pipe to achieve a secure and permanent seal.
