🔍 Key Concepts

• Proper use of pipe dope (thread sealant) on male threads only • Why you should keep the first one or two threads near the end of the pipe bare • Avoiding excess sealant on unthreaded pipe surfaces or inside the system

💭 Think About

• Look at each illustration and ask: On which one is the sealant applied mainly to the working portion of the male threads, but kept slightly back from the very end of the pipe? • Which illustration avoids getting pipe dope on the unthreaded shoulder of the pipe or all the way to the open end where it could squeeze into the system? • Which option shows an even, thin coverage only where the threaded joint will actually engage with the fitting?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify that pipe dope is only on the threaded section, not on the smooth pipe body. • Check that the first thread or two at the pipe end are not heavily coated, to reduce contamination inside the line. • Confirm that the coverage is not excessive (not the entire pipe, not big globs that could be forced into the flow path).
