Review on πŸ”§ Reliable and Durable LA-CO 44095 Slic-Tite PTFE Pipe Thread Tape: Premium Grade, 260" Length, 1/2" Wide in Pink by Matthew Mrspeach

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This tape seals my Dewalt air cartridge adapter solution

Used LA-CO yellow gas line tape with closed AstroAl cartridge and Milton 1/4" NPT reservoir valve on a Dewalt DCC020I 20v air compressor and loves it. The Dewalt screw connector is great and lasts longer. But because of the airbags in the back of my truck, when they unscrew the PSI drops a bit and I'm tired of it. I used the closed AstroAl cartridge and was happy with it. When the cartridge is off the valve stem and I turn on the compressor it quickly reaches the set PSI and stops. Fastenings are tight, there are no leaks when using gas pipe tape. After inflating the tires and airbags, I immediately turned them off. Ideal. The only downside is I then press the chuck bar against the bolt on my fenders to bleed the air out of the Dewalt line because this quality product tape means it will hold that air and is pressurized forever. Which I'm really happy about as the seal is airtight. A buddy and I installed Firestone Ride Right airbags in his truck a few days ago and he loves my Dewalt air compressor (he already has tons of Dewalt 20v gear and I reached out to Dewalt). So when he gets his, I'll give him this duct tape, a second AstroAl air canister, and a second Milton 1/4" NPT reservoir valve.
