Choose-a-Color High-Density Thread Sealant Tape

Use color to identify water, gas, and chemical connections. This tape has a higher density than standard tape for a better seal between threads. Made of PTFE, it has a slippery surface that keeps threads from binding to make parts easy to assemble.

Green tape is often used for oxygen.

Orange and yellow tape is commonly used to indicate fuel and gas.

Red tape is often used for water.

Thread Sealant Tape

Made of PTFE, this tape has a slippery surface that keeps threads from binding to make parts easy to assemble.

PTFE tape with graphite creates a better seal between threads than plain PTFE tape, which helps prevent fluid and gas leaks. The graphite attaches to the PTFE, so this tape does not emit harmful VOCs.
