Product Description
The OATEY 15-806 is a multi-purpose pipe thread sealant designed for use on a wide range of metal and plastic pipe materials. Commonly known as pipe dope, this product seals threaded connections to prevent leaks in plumbing and mechanical systems. The formula is reinforced with Kevlar fiber for added durability and resistance to hardening and cracking over time. It applies in blue and is rated for temperatures from -25 degrees F to 122 degrees F, making it suitable for a broad range of service conditions. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters reach for this sealant when making up threaded joints in water supply, gas, and general-purpose piping systems.
This sealant is used in residential and light commercial plumbing applications where threaded pipe joints require a reliable, long-lasting seal. It is appropriate for use on water lines and performs across multiple pipe materials. The odorless, non-flammable, non-hazardous formula makes it practical for indoor work without special ventilation requirements. The product wipes clean from hands and tools with a dry rag, reducing cleanup time on the job.
