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.

rather than
What is the correct thread-sealer for such things as hose-barbs

I know, I know, I talk, and type, in Country Hick; even my grammar teachers did; they can't help it; it's a Redneck thing.
