Installation: Beginning at the end of the thread, wrap in a overlapping
haphazard fashion in the direction of the thread, apply 2 or 3 drops of the
installation aid directly from the separate dispenser and smear over the
PTFE with the finger, concentrate at the end of the pipe and cover only 10 to
15 mm of the thread The manufacturer`s guidelines on the number of wraps
are: 1/2” pipe min. 12 (fine threads) to 18 (coarse threads) wraps
1 1/2” pipe min. 16 (fine threads) to 24 (coarse threads) wraps
For other pipe Diameters adjust the number of wraps which depend on size
and thread, in the case of doubt wrap up more

Temperature range: -200 °C to +240 °C / pressure: 30 bar
up to +100 °C for oxygen, 100 bar for hot water
