The application is a breeze
It's sturdy, durable, and adheres perfectly to all the surfaces I used it on. The tape's thickness is just right - not too thin to rip and not so thick that it's difficult to manipulate.
The application is a breeze, even for a non-professional like me. It smoothly wraps around the threads without bunching or tearing, making a tight, leak-proof seal every time.

Works as intended!
I've had this product on my LP gas line for over 3 years now that installed myself with no leaks. It's very easy to apply and I got it right the first time. It's very straightforward. Just make sure its wrapped neatly and tight on the threads. Also, make sure to check for leaks. This product did meet my expectations and I didn't find anything to dislike about it. Please hit the thumbs up if this was helpful.

Ran out of pipe dope so off to Home Depot I went. Chased down both pipe dope but more importantly a roll of this yellow teflon tape which is the latest and greatest sealant to use when you reassemble black gas piping. Stuff like this didn't exist over 20 years ago however pipe dope did which I was accustomed to using when installing gas stoves and replacement hot water tanks. Tape like this makes absolute sense especially if you are going to reuse black piping on failed leaking water tanks. Played it safe and used this tape followed by a film of pipe dope. No leaks, looks nice, and now I have alternatives when I misplace either this tape or pipe dope

This teflon tape works so much better at sealing and dosnt degrade super fast like the white tape. I use it on vehicle oil catch cans, so far no issues, just better sealing.
