    Great video. You showed me why I had trouble using pipe dope. I had trouble removing parts after many years of service. I was putting on too much dope on the male end of the threads, plus I never wiped off the excess dope after the piece was tightened. Thanks so much.

    Great video. I would add a note that Rector 5 and other joint compounds settle after it's been sitting for a while and the applicator is insufficient to thoroughly stir the solids from the bottom. Those solids are needed for a proper leak free seal. Set the applicator aside and use a screwdriver to stir up the solids to obtain the consistency as designed by the manufacturer. Otherwise, the compound will be too thin and increase potential for leaks.

    You need to lubricate compression fittings also. And tape or compound will never compromise the seal.

    • @AmreSupply
      @AmreSupply  3 роки тому

      Thanks for watching and for sharing these tips. There are no shortage of debates and forum threads on using tape on compression fittings. Some say that it can interfere with the olive and others say that it provides a better seal. Like most things on the internet the opinions are divided.

    • @AmreSupply
      @AmreSupply  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks for watching. This is a topic that people have various opinions on. When installed correctly, pipe joint compound or teflon tape can be used individually and effectively. Adding both usually just makes more of a mess.

      @@AmreSupply yes true from recent experience having to take pipes apart after appyling pipe compound with the teflon tape was a complete mess getting it all over my hands & fingers, went with straight teflon tape wrapped few times more then what others say 3-4 wraps I go 5-6 with another 5-6 wraps approx where fitting would end on pipe for a very good seal having no problems of leaks going this way.

    Hi team, should I use sealant& teflon together to prevent leakage on our sink tap, thanks

    • @AmreSupply
      @AmreSupply  4 роки тому +1

      Thanks for watching. If the fitting you are considering uses a rubber o-ring then it will not need any sealant or teflon tape. The faucet aerator uses an o-ring as well as the supply lines so pipe joint compound is not needed.

    Can this be used on PVC thread plastic? I don't want to use permanent cement. Trying to use something like this so I could take it out in the future if I need to fix the PVC pipe.

    • @AmreSupply
      @AmreSupply  3 роки тому

      Thank you for watching. A thread sealant can be used with PVC pipe but check the label to make sure its rated for use with PVC plastic. Some oils or compounds can damage PVC so its important to check.

    WHATS THE DIFFERENCE IN PIPE JOINT COMPOUND & THREAD SEALANT

    • @AmreSupply
      @AmreSupply  3 роки тому

      Thanks for watching. Both pipe joint compound and thread sealant are terms that can both refer to the same kind of paste. Thread sealant tape is also called (polytetrafluoroethylene) PTFE Tape or teflon tape. It is a little less messy as pipe joint compound and will do the same function. ua-cam.com/video/9DhL0vet4gk/v-deo.html

    • @AmreSupply
      @AmreSupply  4 роки тому

      Thanks for watching. I think the recommendation comes from trying to limit any extra pipe joint compound getting into the pipe itself, as well applying it on the male thread is easier to keep clean and control the application.

      Thanks for watching. If you are referring to the graphic, that was an error created when the graphic was flipped from it's original orientation. which makes the threads look like they are left handed. Unfortunately this cannot be fixed now that the videos is uploaded without losing all interactions, comments, likes and views. A re uploaded video would be unlikely to gain the same visibility and help the same number of people.
