I don't mess with refrigerator lines, myself; but, I have seen A/C lines and the like with Teflon tape wrapped around the threads, probably by someone with no more sense than me.

Just for curiousity's sake, what would be the outcome of using Teflon tape on refrigerant lines.

Thanks.

For just about anything with threads, you can use either the Permatex #2 or PST.

Thanks for all the replies and possibilities.

I intend to acquire some of each recommendation, just to have on hand.

Who knows just what emergency might pop up next.

well you never can tell on the internet, But I'd of understood better if you said the National Pipe Threads on the other end of a hose barb
