For DIY Plumbing 🚰 Here is some basic information♪ Seal Tape Edition

I have weekly articles by day of the week, and Mondays are for plumbing equipment articles 🚰

Starting today, as a new endeavor, I have created a super short video for you to watch 🚿

I hope you find it useful for your DIY plumbing projects.
If you keep watching them, you might find yourself able to do plumbing work before you know it♪

Dreaming of such a future, I hope to continue this in the future 👍✨

The memorable first installment is on how to wrap seal tape.

By wrapping seal tape around the threaded parts of faucets or pipes and tightening them into the plumbing, you can stop water leaks!
It is an essential item for plumbing professionals ☆

What are threaded pipes?

For example, faucets or mixing faucets installed on walls where pipes come out of the bathroom or kitchen walls.

Also, it is used for the threads of water shut-off valves and iron pipes.

This is a dedicated water pipe connected under the washbasin or kitchen.

It looks like this when disassembled

As shown in the photo, you wrap seal tape around the pipe and screw it into the valve with a handle called a water shut-off valve to connect it.

If you are going to do DIY plumbing, seal tape is a path you cannot avoid 🛣️...

Please use the video as a reference and give it a try ✨

By the way, you can buy seal tape at home centers or on Amazon 👍

And regarding the video, when I reviewed it, I realized that my wrapping technique was a bit sloppy 💦 🙇 (The wrapping method itself is fine, but it's sticking out a little at the tip)

My cough still hasn't stopped 😷 and it was a short filming session, so I was in a hurry 🙏

Of course! That is just an excuse 🥺

I hope you can be kind and try not to mind it.

I plan to continue making short videos and posting them in articles.
I look forward to your continued support for this new series 🆕 🚰

※ In the case of threaded connections, a hardening sealant (Hermetic) is also used in conjunction with seal tape in actual construction.
I didn't include it in the video explanation this time, but I would like to introduce it in a future sequel.

By the way, here is the photo 💁‍♂️

Apply lightly before wrapping the thread seal tape
