Vibra-Tite 486 is a Non-Curing Thread Sealant with PTFE which can be used to seal against many liquids and gases both under pressure and under vacuum. It is an ideal sealant for water pipes. It can be used on metal and most plastics. The operating temperature range for this material in most applications is about -50°C to 150°C.
The item is worth a 5 star review but the fact it took 3 weeks to receive the item knocked the review down to 3 stars. Won’t order from Pilotshq.com again. I’ve ordered other items in the past and it’s always the same, 3-4 weeks for delivery.
Very well made, feels good in the hand. The only problem I've had with them is the reverse twist function. When you pull to twist it gets hung up for 3 to 4 tries. They work eventually. Fast shipping and packaged nicely.
