It was developed in Australia for professional plumbers, and it is WaterMark approved to WMTS 014:2016 (licence WMK26374). The tape has a density of 0.8g\/cm³ and handles a wide temperature range, from -190°C to +310°C, so it suits both hot and cold water lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere to use it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIndoors: threaded fittings on domestic and commercial water lines, such as taps, valves, unions and connectors.\u003cbr\u003eOutdoors: threaded water connections on garden and irrigation lines and other exposed pipework.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSuitable for the threaded joints of water pipe fittings. Pink tape is intended for water use, so choose a tape that is rated for gas on any gas fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMake sure the male thread is clean and dry, and free of old tape, oil and debris. Hold the end of the tape on the thread and wrap it around the thread in the direction the fitting will tighten, so the tape does not unwind when the joint is made up. Overlap each turn slightly, keep the tape pulled snug so it presses into the thread grooves, and leave the first thread clear. Tear off the tape, press the end down, then assemble the joint and tighten as normal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDo not over-tighten, as this can damage fittings. If a joint leaks after assembly, undo it, remove the old tape and rewrap with fresh tape rather than adding more on top. Follow your local plumbing regulations and the fitting manufacturer's instructions for the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBoston\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePremium PTFE Plumbers Pink Thread Seal Tape\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10 rolls, each 12mm x 10m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePink\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePTFE\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDensity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.8g\/cm³\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTemperature range\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e-190°C to +310°C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApplication\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHand wrapped onto threads\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStandards\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWaterMark approved, WMTS 014:2016, WMK26374\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUse\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHot and cold water pipe threads\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSafety\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUse with normal care and keep the work area tidy so loose tape offcuts do not end up in pipework.
