All-source 025311 Thread Sealant Paste Pipe Compound

Product Description

The ALL-SOURCE 025311 is a nontoxic, viscous thread sealant paste formulated for leakproofing threaded, flanged, and assembly-line pipe connections. It applies easily by brush or applicator and sets to a pliable, nondripping state that resists deterioration on PVC and other common piping materials. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians use this compound when making up threaded joints on water, gas, and mechanical piping systems. At 0.759 pounds, the container is a compact, jobsite-friendly size suited for both shop and field work.

This thread compound is intended for use on threaded and flanged connections across residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC, and general mechanical piping installations. It is suited for assembly-line connection work as well as one-off field joints. The nontoxic, nondripping formula reduces mess during application and keeps joints serviceable for future disassembly when maintenance or system modifications are required.

Installation Notes

Apply by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC) where applicable. Shut off water supply or depressurize the line before making up or breaking apart any threaded joint. Apply a uniform coat to the male threads before assembly and avoid over-applying paste that could introduce material into the pipe bore. Allow the compound to fully set before pressurizing the system and leak-checking all joints.
