Re: teflon tape question

I am with cdowns as Teflon tape will shred and float down stream clogging up orfices. People have had really bad experiences with teflon tape in hydraulic systems as it will stop the valves from shifting.

Teflon paste or similar materials will stay in place when properly applied.
