Measuring 3\/4 inches wide and 520 inches long, the roll provides generous coverage for high-volume service work or larger-diameter fittings. PTFE tape acts as a lubricant and sealant on male pipe threads, reducing galling on metal fittings and helping achieve a proper pressure-tight seal. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians keep this tape on hand as a standard consumable for threaded joint assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tape is suited for residential and light commercial work wherever threaded connections are made, including water supply lines, hydronic heating systems, refrigerant service ports, and compressed-air fittings. The wider 3\/4-inch format is commonly used on larger pipe diameters and on fittings where a standard 1\/2-inch roll would require extra wraps. It is a frequently stocked consumable in service vans and shop inventory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePTFE construction provides chemical resistance and a low-friction sealing surface on threaded joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/4-inch width suits larger pipe diameters and reduces the number of wraps needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e520-inch length per roll supports extended use between restocking\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHelps prevent galling on brass, stainless, and galvanized threaded fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with water, air, and many fluid media commonly encountered in trade work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard PTFE thread seal tape for use on male threaded pipe fittings across plumbing, HVAC, and general piping applications.

Shut off water supply or system pressure before disassembling any existing connection. Ensure threads are clean and dry before applying tape for best adhesion and seal. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters should follow IPC and IFGC requirements when applying thread sealants on potable water or gas piping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 520 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31201500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: WHITLAM\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: jc-sw520\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"WHITLAM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51138382692658,"sku":"JC-SW520","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/305532335.png?v=1778254849","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/whitlam-jc-sw520-ptfe-thread-seal-tape-3-4-x-520-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
