TF-15®
TF-15®Metal-Free Thread Sealing Compound
A high-pressure sealant containing PTFE, graphite and rust, corrosion, and oxidation inhibitors. All are blended in JET-LUBE's complex grease manufactured using highly refined, low-sulfur oil to ensure brushability over a wide temperature range, tenacious adherence to all surfaces, resistance to water washout, and prevention of rust/corrosion. TF-15 is highly recommended for use on fiberglass casing and tubing on cut threads. Formed threads can have tighter clearances and require the use of TF-15 Arctic. It assures tight makeup at low torque and allows easy breakout without seizing, stripping, or galling. It provides a permanent seal and maintains joint efficiency under vibration, pressure, surge, and temperature fluctuations.
Formulated for precision threads of API oilfield casing, tubing, line pipe, subsurface production tools, and related accessories. It prevents galling and thread wear, seals badly worn threads, and greatly increases connection life.
It is particularly useful in areas subject to H2S*, salt water, a wide variety of oils, solvents, gases (except oxygen), acids, alkalis and steam.
TF-15 is expressly formulated for precision threads of API oilfield casing, tubing, line pipe, subsurface production tools, and related accessories. It prevents galling and thread wear, seals badly worn threads, and greatly increases connection life.
Ideal tubing connections - threaded.
