Thread sealant tape UNIPAK Gevindsnor uniflon 175M/RULLE – PTFE thread tape, 175 m roll

UNIPAK Gevindsnor uniflon 175M/RULLE is a PTFE thread sealant tape supplied on a 175 m roll for sealing pipe and fitting threads. The tape is chemically inert and low-friction, filling thread gaps to prevent leaks in plumbing, gas and hydraulic systems. Suitable for use on metal and plastic threaded connections, it provides a non-reactive barrier that reduces galling and supports reliable sealing and corrosion resistance during assembly and maintenance operations.

Advantages

The PTFE composition ensures excellent chemical resistance and a low coefficient of friction, making the tape easy to apply and remove without leaving residue. Its uniform thickness and flexibility conform to different thread profiles to create a consistent seal. The long 175 m roll length reduces the need for frequent replacement and is convenient for workshops and maintenance teams. The tape is compatible with a wide range of fluids and gases commonly encountered in plumbing and hydraulic systems.

Suitable for

• Sealing threaded joints in plumbing installations
• Connection sealing in gas and fuel systems where PTFE is permitted
• Hydraulic and pneumatic fittings to prevent leakage
• Maintenance and assembly of metal and plastic threaded components

Key specifications

• Material: PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene)
• Roll length: 175 m
• Form: thin, low-friction tape for wrapping threads
• Compatibility: suitable for metal and plastic threaded connections
• Chemical properties: chemically inert and corrosion resistant
• Function: fills thread gaps to prevent leaks and reduce galling

How to use

Ensure threads are clean and dry before application. Start the tape at the end of the male thread and wrap in the direction of the thread rotation, overlapping slightly with each turn to cover the thread grooves. Apply 2–3 complete wraps for typical pipe threads; more wraps may be used for larger or damaged threads. After wrapping, assemble the connection and tighten to the required torque. The tape provides an immediate seal and does not require curing.

Usage recommendations

Use PTFE tape intended for the pipe type and media; avoid using general PTFE tape in systems where specific approvals are required for gas or high-pressure hydraulic services. Store the roll in a dry environment away from direct sunlight and contaminants. For best performance, inspect threaded parts for damage before wrapping and replace heavily corroded components.
