    Permatex 80017 Aviation Form-A-GasketĀ®

    Does say on the tin can be used for threads.

    Of PTFE.

    Or other.
     
  2. ptfe is fine... but if you use the correct taper fitting, then you don't need to use any sealer!! :)
     
  3. Cheers Paul, it's all aeroquip fittings in using, but just want to be on the safe side, I've got enough leeks, don't want too add to them.
     
  4. aeroquip fittings don't leak ;)

    it's what I use, and at that cost, I wouldn't use the stuff if it did :thumbsup:
