Blue Monster 70850 Blue Monster® OXY-CLUTCH Green Oxygen PTFE Thread Sealing Tape 1/2" x 260"

Thread Sealant for critical oxygen-service sealing applications

Blue Monster OXY-Clutch Green Oxygen Tape is a maximum density, PTFE thread sealing tape designed specifically for oxygen lines. This special thread sealing tape is manufactured from PTFE resin mixed with a small amount of solvent. For normal applications it does not matter if the solvent is not removed from the finished product. However, when operating in a pure oxygen environment remaining volatiles can react with the oxygen and cause an explosion. So Blue Monster OXY-Clutch Tape is put through a rigorous process to remove the solvent.

Blue Monster OXY-Clutch Tape is a thick, maximum-density thread sealing tape ensuring an effective seal. Also, as an important safety feature, Blue Monster Oxygen tape is pigmented green to ensure that the fitter or inspector can easily recognize that the tape is compatible with oxygen.

Characteristics:

  • Compatible with gaseous or liquid oxygen
  • Compatible with a broad range of gases and liquids.
  • Compatible with a broad range of piping materials
  • Will not harden or crack on the joint
  • No curing time
  • Indefinite shelf life
  • Effective across a broad range of temperatures
  • Acts as a thread lubricant and anti-seize
  • Prevents electrolytic corrosion of threads
  • Clean, Non-toxic and Non-flammable

 

Applications:

Blue Monster OXY-Clutch Green Oxygen Tape is manufactured from PTFE resin, a polymer consisting of recurring tetrafluoroethylene monomers whose formula is (CIF -CIF)n. It is one of the 23 most inert substances known. Therefore, it is compatible with a very wide range of materials. It can be used on pipe made from galvanized steel, iron, brass, copper, aluminum, stainless steel, polyethylene, polypropylene, PVC, CPVC, ABS and fiberglass.
