I’ve never done it but can you use Teflon tape or some type of thread sealer on the collar nut of hydraulic lines?
No Richard.I’ve never done it but can you use Teflon tape or some type of thread sealer on the collar nut of hydraulic lines?
As long as it's a double flare you can use Teflon tape for additional sealing.
If you be careful why would it not also be a good idea to use a paste? Just wondering what the difference between Teflon tape and a paste is?Teflon paste is a no-no for that reason.
I've always heard that you don't use any kind of sealer on a flared fitting. Why flare the fitting if all you need is a sealer on the threads?
Do you work on a racing team?
Sounds like you need two more drivers?Currently run my own team of 4 drivers and 6 cars.
"You are not supposed to."
Please show us something that states that information. I have seen Teflon tape used on professional builds, NASCAR stockers and NHRA Pro Stocks. I understand that it is not required, but again it can be used if you desire. I have never heard or seen the use of anti-seize on brake fittings. Sounds like a good idea.
