Rectorseal25631 4-Ounce No. 5 Pipe Thread Sealant , Yellow , 4 fl. oz.

After using Rectorseal T+2 for years without a leak, I tried this 5 version on air compressor fittings because it semi-hardens when it dries, which might take the abuse and vibration of compressor lines better. Like T+2 it works great and hasn't leaked so far. Rectorseal is great stuff, it's made in USA and has never failed me on natural gas, pressure washers, and air compressors.When Teflon tape is included with a threaded pipe product, I always throw it away and use Rectorseal.

I was using this nearly 50 years ago and I’m back to stay. I’ve messed with teflon tape and had leaks. No more. Rectorseal #5 seals well, easy to use with the brush, sets quickly enough to pressurize right away, but stays soft enough so threads come apart easily. Yes, it can be messy but that’s a small price to pay.

Following detection of a gas leak near my grill, I employed the product, re-secured the hose connection, and the odor has since dissipated. The product proved effective in providing a temporary solution to the gas leak.

I bought this to seal new connectors to an existing propane line. The paste was as easy to use as anything else. So far no leaks and the seals are holding. Not sure how well it will hold up being out in the weather but only time will tell. I like paste over tape because it can get in the nooks and crannys easy than the tape. I've never used this brand before as I usually buy at my local big box store. It seems like it is of good quality and the price was right.

Ease of use with predictable results!

GOOD SEALANT FOR PIPE THREADS

Very good quality. Used to seal gas dryer.

I did 5 layers of tape and a small coating of this and my water heater connections had zero leaks from the get go. Were the 5 layers of tape enough? Probably but I’ll spend the few extra bucks to be sure.
