plumbers tape
Pipe joint wrap
Plumber's tape is a thin, flexible strip of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) wrapped around pipe threads to create a watertight seal.
The tape fills gaps between threaded connections, preventing leaks in plumbing fixtures: I wrapped some plumber's tape around the showerhead fitting.
Also called Teflon tape or thread seal tape.
