PTFE Tape

Achieve leak-proof, airtight, and professional-quality connections with PTFE tape from Phantom Motorsports. Commonly known as “plumber’s tape” or “thread seal tape,” PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) tape is a must-have for sealing threaded pipe joints in automotive, performance, and shop applications. Perfect for fuel, coolant, oil, air, and brake line assemblies, our PTFE tape provides a durable, non-hardening seal that resists heat, chemicals, and vibration.

At Phantom Motorsports, our PTFE tape is easy to apply, stays flexible, and ensures disassembly down the road is a breeze. It’s compatible with a wide range of threads and fitting types, including brass, aluminum, steel, and plastic. From simple fluid line plumbing to custom builds and pressure systems, our PTFE tape delivers reliable sealing whenever threads need to stay tight and leak-free.

FAQ

What is PTFE tape used for?
PTFE tape is wrapped around the threads of pipe fittings before assembly to create a secure, leak-proof, and air-tight seal, preventing fluid or gas leaks.

Where can I use PTFE tape on my car or in the shop?
Use it on threaded fuel, oil, coolant, air, and brake fittings, including AN lines, sensors, coolant temp senders, and pneumatic tools—anywhere you need to prevent leaks without using a liquid thread sealer.

Is PTFE tape safe for use with all fluids?
Yes, it’s highly resistant to gasoline, oil, coolant, air, brake fluid, and most chemicals found in automotive shop environments.

Does PTFE tape withstand heat and pressure?
Absolutely. Quality PTFE tape performs well in both high-pressure and high-temperature locations typical in engines, transmissions, and air systems.

How do I apply PTFE tape correctly?
Wrap 2-3 layers around clean, dry male threads in the same direction as assembly (so it doesn’t unravel), then tighten by hand or with a tool as normal.

Will PTFE tape gum up or block fluid passages?
If applied correctly and excess tape is not allowed to protrude into the fitting, PTFE tape provides a clean seal and shouldn’t clog passages.

What if my PTFE tape arrives damaged or dry?
Customer satisfaction is our priority. If your roll arrives unusable, contact us within 7 days for a prompt replacement, exchange, or refund.
