THREAD SEAL TAPE

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

Thread seal tapes from Unipak are white, non-adhesive thread seal tapes produced from pure Polytetraflourethylen (PTFE) also called Teflon*. UNITAPE (U) (12m x 12mm x 0,076mm, 0,35g/cm³, max. 30 bar) complies with BS7786; MIDITAPE (MI) (12m x 12mm x 0,10mm, 0,35g/cm³, max. 30 bar); MAXITAPE (MA) (12m x 12mm x 0,10mm, 0,7g/cm³, max. 100 bar) complies with DIN30660; and JUMBOTAPE (J) (10m x 19mm x 0,20mm, 0,5g/cm³, max. 100 bar). Generally, you can say about thread seal tape that the higher density (g/cm³) the better product. That means more flexibility and improved diffusion seal capability. And in addition it makes the tape easier to work with and more economic in use. MULTITAPE is recommended for natural gas, OXYGENTAPE is recommended for liquid oxygen; see separate data sheets.

APPLICATION:

U, MI, MA og J are applied for the sealing of threaded joints on systems for water, compressed air, cooling and steam systems and hydraulic systems. Applicable on all types of materials (iron, metal, plastic, fibre etc.). Thread seal tape is also suitable on systems where heavy hygiene requirements are made (hospitals, food industry etc.)

TECHNICAL PROPERTIES:

The exceptional strenght and high molecular weight of the carbon fibre-fluorine compound provides PTFE-tape series of outstanding qualities. Temperature proofed from -200*C to +260*C. Resistant to almost all types of acids, bases, solvents, chemicals etc., however, with the exception of fluorine, some fluoride chemicals and melted alkali metals. Very low coefficient of friction. Non-inflammable (ASTM D-635 og D-470). Non-ageing. High tensile strenght even at low temperatures. Breaking-down resistant, especially, in connection with bending and vibrations. Sound electric insulating power independent of frequency and temperature. PTFE is rather bad resistant to gamma radiation.

DIRECTIONS:

Remove any dirt and metal shavings from the thread before application of PFTE-tape. Put the tape on the thread joint in the direction of inclination of the thread. Apply the tape with an even, firm pull to be tight-fitting about the thread. Dependent on wanted thickness of layer the overlap should be from ½ to ¾ tape width. After assembling of the thread joints you should not disassemble. Dependent on pipe diameters the following type of tape is applied: Up to 25 mm UNITAPE is recommended. From 25 mm to 40 mm MAXITAPE is recommended. From 40 mm 65 mm JUMBOTAPE is recommended. Due to the fact that JUMBOTAPE is extremely flexible, it is ideal for coarse, damaged or sharp pipe threads. For very high pressure installations (e.g. hydraulic systems) thread seal seal tape with a high density is recommended anyhow (e.g. Maxitape). The tape is used alone and without any use of sliding agents.

MULTITAPE
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

MULTITAPE (12m x 12mm x 0,1mm HD) is a white, non-adhesive thread seal tape produced from 100% pure PTFE (Polytetrafluorethylen). MULTITAPE is approved for natural gas.

APPLICATION:

MULTITAPE is applied for the sealing of threaded joints on systems for gas. The tape is also suitable for the sealing of threaded joints on other pipe systems. For instance, on systems for hydraulic, compressed air and steam systems. MULTITAPE is applicable on almost all types of materials such as iron, metal, plastic, fibre etc.
