It is primarily used as a joint sealant, especially in systems that involve threaded pipe connections, ensuring a tight and leak-free seal between male and female threaded components.

Product Overview:

• Type: Plumber’s Hemp (also known as Plumber's Jute or Teflon Hemp)
• Weight: 200 grams
• Material: Made from natural hemp fibers that are specifically treated for plumbing use. This product is a traditional and eco-friendly alternative to synthetic thread sealants like PTFE (Teflon) tape or paste.

Key Features:

1. Natural and Eco-Friendly Material:
   • Belatori Plumbers Hemp is made from natural hemp fibers, which are biodegradable, making it a more eco-conscious choice compared to synthetic materials.
   • It’s an environmentally friendly option for sealing joints and connections in plumbing systems.
2. Superior Sealing Performance:
   • Hemp is ideal for providing an excellent seal when used with pipe threads. It works by compressing between threads to fill any gaps, forming a tight barrier that prevents leaks.
   • It’s especially effective in gas and water pipe systems, ensuring that threaded connections remain leak-free for an extended period.
4. Easy to Use:
   • Plumbers hemp is easy to handle and apply. Simply wrap it around the male threads of a pipe and then screw the fittings together.
   • It doesn’t require mixing or applying excess pressure, making it user-friendly for both professionals and DIYers.
5. High Resistance to Pressure:
   • Hemp is strong and durable, providing effective sealing even in high-pressure environments, which makes it ideal for water and gas pipe fittings.
6. Resilient to Temperature Variations:
   • The hemp fibers have natural resistance to temperature changes, making them suitable for both hot and cold water systems.
7. 200G Pack Size:
   • The 200-gram pack offers a sufficient quantity for medium to large projects, whether it’s plumbing repairs or installations in residential, commercial, or industrial settings.
9. Compatibility:
   • Works with metal and plastic pipes, providing a tight seal for a variety of threaded plumbing connections, including water, gas, and heating systems.

Usage Guidelines:

1. Preparation:
   • Ensure the threads of both male and female fittings are clean and free from dirt, grease, or old sealant before applying the hemp.
2. Application:
   • Begin by pulling out a suitable amount of Belatori Plumbers Hemp from the 200g roll.
   • Wind the hemp evenly around the male threads of the pipe in a clockwise direction (the same direction as the fitting will screw on).
   • Avoid overloading the threads with too much hemp; a few turns around the threads are typically sufficient.
3. Assembly:
   • Once the hemp is applied, screw the fittings together, tightening by hand and then using a wrench to secure the connection. Make sure the hemp compresses and fills the gaps between the threads, providing a secure, leak-free seal.
4. Checking for Leaks:
   • After installation, turn on the water or gas supply and check for any leaks around the connection. If there are any, further tightening may be necessary, or additional hemp may need to be applied.
6. Storage:
   • Store the hemp in a dry, cool place to prevent it from becoming damp or deteriorating, as moisture can affect its sealing properties.

Application Suitability:

• Residential Plumbing: Ideal for use in home plumbing systems, such as connecting faucets, water pipes, gas pipes, and heating systems.
• Commercial Plumbing: Suitable for sealing pipes in commercial buildings, offices, or retail spaces, especially in gas and water supply systems.
• Industrial Use: Can be used in industrial pipework where threaded joints need to be securely sealed to avoid leaks or contamination, including in gas pipelines and chemical systems.
• Outdoor/Environmental Applications: Given its eco-friendly nature, it’s also useful in outdoor installations where natural materials are preferred.

Maintenance Recommendations:

• Inspect Periodically: Check threaded connections that use plumber’s hemp for leaks during regular maintenance. If any leaks occur, the connection may need to be resealed or re-tightened.
• Reapply as Needed: If the seal begins to degrade or if any parts of the hemp break down over time, it may need to be replaced or reapplied for continued performance.
• Avoid Over-tightening: Over-tightening connections may damage the threads or crush the hemp seal, causing it to lose its effectiveness.

Performance and Reliability:

• Effective Sealing: Belatori Plumbers Hemp is highly reliable for creating tight, leak-proof seals at threaded connections, even in high-pressure systems.
• Durability: Hemp is known for its natural strength and longevity, making this product durable in both cold and hot water systems as well as gas lines.
• Eco-Conscious: Unlike synthetic sealants, hemp is biodegradable and does not contribute to environmental waste, making it an ideal choice for environmentally conscious consumers.
