I don't use teflon tape much anymore. I use teflon-bearing pipe dope

Oatey makes a teflon-filled dope in a squeeze tube that's not so messy as a
can and swab.

I tried this stuff for oil at under 150PSI and all it did was leak. Teflon pipe thread worked fine.


The stuff is the tits for hydraulic work, and any air work with
flow-limiting valves that might get gummed up with a loose hair of teflon
tape.
