Oatey Company 30010 Pipe Thread Compound Stick 1.25 Oz

Product Description

The OATEY COMPANY 30010 is a gray pipe thread compound in stick form, designed to seal threaded pipe connections against leaks. Applied directly to male pipe threads before assembly, the compound fills voids in the thread engagement to create a pressure-resistant seal. The stick format reduces mess compared to paste-style compounds and allows for controlled, consistent application. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically use thread compound as part of standard threaded joint assembly on gas, water, and steam lines where thread sealant is required by code.

This product is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications involving threaded metal pipe connections. The stick format is especially practical for field work and service calls where clean, quick application is essential. Each unit ships in a 12-count display box, making it a practical stock item for supply houses and trade shops alike.

Installation Notes

Thread compound is applied by licensed plumbers and pipefitters as part of threaded joint assembly per IPC and IFGC guidelines. Before working on any live line, shut off the water supply or gas valve and depressurize the system. Apply compound to the male threads only, then assemble and tighten the joint to the appropriate engagement. Do not apply thread compound as a substitute for pipe dope or PTFE tape where a specific sealant type is required by the applicable code or manufacturer.
