General-purpose thread sealant tape
Poly-Temp 16060 is a medium-density PTFE tape designed for general-purpose pipe thread sealing. It comes in a 1-inch wide roll with 43 feet of length. The tape is suitable for threads up to 1-1/2 inches in diameter. It provides a reliable seal for plumbing and industrial piping connections.
Temperature range and pressure ratings
The tape operates across a broad temperature span from -400 to 550 degrees Fahrenheit. It withstands liquid pressures up to 10,000 psi and gas pressures up to 2,000 psi. Linear density falls between 0.7 and 0.8 g/cc. The white tape remains stable and effective throughout this entire envelope.
Sustained extreme conditions
Under continuous exposure to the maximum rated temperature and pressure, the tape maintains its sealing integrity without degrading. The medium-density construction resists cold flow and extrusion during prolonged thermal cycling. It is not intended for applications exceeding the stated 1-1/2 inch thread diameter or the listed pressure limits.

Questions about this item
How do I apply the 1 in wide tape on threads up to 1 1/2 in and what step is often missed?
Wrap the tape clockwise around clean male threads with slight tension, overlapping each turn by half the width; the step often missed is pressing the tape firmly into the thread roots so it does not unwind when the joint is tightened.
Will the tape need replacement after exposure to the 550 Degrees F maximum temperature?
The PTFE material remains stable up to 550 Degrees F and down to -400 Degrees F, so thermal cycling within that range does not degrade the seal; replacement is only required if the joint is disassembled or the tape is physically damaged.
At what pressure does the seal reach its limit first during sustained use on a gas line?
The maximum operating pressure for gases is 2, 000 psi, which is lower than the 10, 000 psi liquid rating, so the gas-pressure limit will be reached first under sustained pressurisation.
