It is manufactured with PTFE resin and sintered; this is why it is highly resistant to corrosion and to temperatures up to 260 °C (500 °F) and it has a very low coefficient of friction., It is non-combustible, and protects threads from becoming oxidized; this makes the threads’ coating both easier and cheaper and facilitates their disassembly even after the passing of time. It is not toxic and it does not favor the proliferation of decomposition bacteria such as hemp. Finally, it does not contain forms of lead, detrimental to health, such as litharge nor does it stiffen threads like regular thread sealants.
