Exact same thing I do.I use teflon tape and Megaloc™ on my threaded joints. Except on gas pipe, then I just use Megaloc™.
No it doesn't. It is a soft compound like teflon paste, You must be thinking of something else.Megaloc gets hard as concrete after about a week.
You are thinking of BLUE BLOCK maybe? I hate that stuff, is gets hard as rock.Multi-purpose thread sealant made with DuPontTMKEVLAR®for use on
metals including steel, stainless steel, brass, copper, aluminum, and on
plastics including PVC, CPVC and ABS.Leak-free joints can be tested
and put into service at once.MEGALOC wipes clean from hands and
tools with a dry rag, is odor-free, grit-free, and will not separate or
settle.MEGALOC does not harden, crack or become brittle;joints can
be disassembled without damage to pipe, fittings, or threads years
after the joint was made.
MEGALOC is applied easily with a natural bristle brush even at
temperatures as low as -25°F, and performs over a temperature range
of -50°F to +400°F.It provides leak-proof hydraulic resistance to 12,000
psi and withstands gas pressure up to 2,600 psi.MEGALOCis
non-toxic, non-hazardous, and non-flammable.It contains no lead,
heavy metals, or volatile solvents.
Yup, that's the stuff. Bout 5 yeaars ago I used it for a year. Had trouble with it. And it did get uber hard. Maybe they changed the make up of it since. I love how the can says easy clean up:laughing: I got pants with that crap still on em.No it doesn't. It is a soft compound like teflon paste, You must be thinking of something else.![]()
