Material Notes:
Description: Chesterton® 850 Premium Sealing Tape is a high density, moldable, dry PTFE thread sealing tape. It is a heavy duty, tear-resistant product containing more PTFE per inch than virtually any thread sealing tape on the market today. Chesterton 850 Premium Sealing Tape is chemically inert and seals most types of threaded metal and plastic pipes and bots. It is nonreactive with steam, water, air fuels, refrigerants, acids, alkalies, all solvents, and gases including hydrogen, oxygen, ammonia, propane, butane, and nitrogen. For nitric or mixed acid services, factory should be consulted. Chesterton 850 Premium Sealing Tape is non-hardening and stays pliable without the breakage seen in other PTFE containing tapes. It places a slippery layer of PTFE between mated threads which remains flexible and resists vibration. Connections that might otherwise be destroyed are saved for reuse as tape eases disassembly. Slippage is minimized during application as deep penetration for threads is possible with the soft malleable tape. Joints can be adjusted 90° or more without a leak. Chesterton 850 Premium Sealing Tape is packaged in rugged easy-to carry- spools which protect the tape of dirt and contaminationFeatures: UL Listed - US CanadaMeets MIL-T-27730AMeets USDA requirements for incidental food contactConforms to FDA21CFR 177.1615Acceptable to oxygen useNon-agingNon-HardeningHigh densityChemically resistantBenefits: Stays pliableAlways ready to useRequires fewer wrapsResists tearing and breakageWon't clog fuel lines.Applications: Use Chesterton 850 Premium Sealing Tape as a non-hardening, dry thread sealant for most liquids, gases, pneumatic and hydraulic fittings.
