NPTF THREADS can provide pressure tight seal on threads without use of a sealing compunt (Dry Seal Type). They are used in pipe assemblies where without using sealing compound pressure tight joint is required on threads.
PTF Threads are similar to NPTF but short in length. PTF threads are used in applications similar to NPTF.
