Product Description

1/2" x 520" PTFE Thread Seal Tape (Teflon) — contractor-grade plumber's tape made from polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). Typical catalog/spec items list a 1/2-inch (12.7 mm) tape width and 520-inch (≈13.2 m) roll length, commonly manufactured at ~3.5 mil thickness and rated for very wide temperature ranges (roughly −450°F to +500°F). Use: seals tapered pipe threads (MPT/FPT) on metal and plastic fittings to prevent leaks; not intended for garden-hose (FHT/MHT) washer seals or oxygen service unless specifically marked for that use. Several distributor listings (catalog and retail) show this exact size and material; retail prices across US distributors range roughly $1.05 (case/wholesale per-roll pricing) up to about $2.68 each, with a current median around $1.95/roll. Suggested competitive local resale price for Dayton, IA 50530: $2.25 each — a modest retail margin while remaining competitive with online/wholesale offers in the references below.
