Thread sealing

[Wet Spaniel]

Folks, I’m planning on fitting a pressure gauge to a 2 way gas distribution manifold. I know I need some sealant on the thread to keep it gas tight but I’m not familiar with any products that I could use. Would liquid puff be enough or do I need to go with something more specialist? Thanks in advance Jonty

Use Teflon tape designed for gas connections and not Teflon tape designed for water pipes. I am using Oatley brand here in the US. You will need to check for a brand available near you.

Manufactured especially for natural gas, propane, butane, water, oil and chemical lines
Heavier than white tape with density of 1.35-1.50 grams/cubic centimeters, 4 mils thick

This is what you need. It is foodsafe and only needs the the threads to be hand tightened.
