Midland Industries 982132 Thread Seal Oxygen Tape Ptfe Green

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 982132 is a green PTFE thread seal tape rated for oxygen service applications. It measures 3/4 inch wide and 520 inches long with a thickness of 3.5 mil, making it a full-length roll suited for high-volume work. The green color designation identifies this tape as oxygen-compatible, distinguishing it from standard white PTFE tape used on other gas and water lines. At a density of 1.2 g/cc, the tape seats firmly into pipe threads without fragmenting or tearing during wrapping. Plumbers, gas fitters, and industrial service technicians install this tape to create leak-free threaded connections in oxygen-enriched piping systems.

This tape is used in threaded piping systems where oxygen service compatibility is required, including medical gas lines, industrial oxygen distribution, and pneumatic systems with oxygen-enriched media. The green color coding follows standard trade identification practices for oxygen service, helping technicians quickly confirm the correct tape is being used on the correct service line during installation or inspection. It is appropriate for both new construction and maintenance work on threaded fittings and valves in these service environments.

Key Features

• Green color identifies tape as oxygen-service rated per standard trade color coding
• 3.5 mil thickness provides consistent thread coverage without excessive bulk
• 520 inch roll length reduces roll changes during high-volume installation work
• PTFE material is chemically inert and compatible with oxygen service environments
• 1.2 g/cc density ensures the tape conforms tightly to thread profiles without shredding
• 3/4 inch width suits standard pipe thread sizes commonly found in commercial and industrial systems

Compatibility

Designed for use on threaded connections in oxygen service piping systems where PTFE thread seal tape meeting oxygen-compatibility requirements is specified.

Installation Notes

This tape must only be installed by qualified technicians familiar with oxygen service piping requirements, as improper materials in oxygen lines present a serious ignition and combustion hazard. Shut down and fully depressurize the system and verify zero oxygen pressure before disassembling any threaded connection. Wrap the tape in the direction of the thread to prevent unraveling during assembly, and avoid applying excessive layers that could introduce loose PTFE fragments downstream. Reference applicable codes such as NFPA 99 for medical gas systems or relevant OSHA and CGA guidelines for industrial oxygen piping.
