@livin.lost: Thread tape seems simple, but wrapping it the wrong way can cause leaks. Here’s the quick method plumbers use so fittings seal tight the first time. Perfect tip for homeowners doing small plumbing repairs. Save this for the next time you're working on threaded fittings. #plumbing #homeowner #fyp #moneysavingtips #tips #DIY
Yall pay close attention and NEVER wrap your teflon with the roll turned that direction!

Old school plumber told me 7 wraps was the correct way…I’m not trying to correct you just being respectful

If you flip the teflon but still wrap the same way, it creates more tension and is easier to wrap

Your spinning your tape off the reel backwards easier to keep tension on the tape when holding the reel the other way

Wrap the tape the SAME direction the fitting tightens (clockwise 99% of the time). If it unravels while tightening, you wrapped it backwards 👍

Flip your tape roll bud, it will be nice and tite, also exposing the first few threads

My Trade school says it’s 4 wraps from the end towards the pipe and 4 more from the end of the tread to the end

Then you take the edge of the tape spool and follow the groove of the threads…
