Product Description
The MILL-ROSE 70886 is a PTFE thread seal tape designed for use on threaded pipe connections in plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical systems. Commonly known as Teflon tape, PTFE tape is wrapped around male pipe threads before assembly to create a leak-free seal and to lubricate threads for easier makeup. This 3/4-inch-wide tape in the Blue Monster line is sized for larger-diameter fittings and is a standard consumable carried by plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians on nearly every service call.
This tape is appropriate for residential and commercial piping work where a reliable thread sealant is required. The 3/4-inch width fits standard larger-diameter threaded fittings commonly found in supply lines, gas risers, and mechanical room piping. It is used by licensed plumbers, gas fitters, and HVAC technicians during new installation and repair work on threaded connections.

Installation Notes
Thread seal tape is applied by hand to clean, dry male pipe threads before assembly. Wrap the tape in the direction of the threads to prevent unwinding during joint makeup. Shut off and depressurize any line before disassembling or reassembling threaded connections. Always verify local plumbing and mechanical codes for approved thread sealant methods on gas and potable water systems.
