High Temp Thread Sealing Tape 2

[George1979]

Hello everyone,

I wanted to ask about a sealing tape that I could use for threaded connections on the rig that we're building. By high temperature I mean something around 300C - preferably 350C if that is possible. The PTFE tape that we've got in the workshop goes only up to around 250C and I couldn't find anything in the RS catalogue.

Any information on what could I use and where could I find it would be much appreciated.

Kind Regards,
George

One choice is Grafoil tape. UCAR also makes a graphite paste for thread sealing.
