- Pipe Dope, Plumbers Putty, or Teflon Tape? - Love Plumbing Remodel
Pipe dope is a gooey paste that is used on threaded pipe joints Teflon tape is used for the same purpose, and some plumbers use both at the same time Plumbers putty is use when installing sink drains It is a soft putty that will compress to seal between the flange and the sink Some new materials require silicon, but that's another question
- Silicone Vs Plumbers Putty - Love Plumbing Remodel
Same for tub drains Putty for the strainer, nothing on the rubber seal between tub and tub drain I reserve Silicone for shower drains On lav pop-ups, pipe dope on the threads where it goes through the large rubber washer to prevent water from rolling down the threads On compression sleeves, normally nothing, or maybe light oil
- Plumbers putty or rubber gasket under sink flange (stainless steel sink . . .
The manufacturer of the new Garbage Disposal we are installing in a couple days says IF you have a stainless steel sink do not use plumber putty under the sink flange when installing, use the rubber gasket they provide instead Well, I understand they are the manufacturer, but I am more interested in what plumbers have to say from experience

- Mounting a Toilet: Grout, plaster, or putty? | Terry Love Plumbing . . .

Plumbers putty under the sink strainer and I prefer teflon paste ontop of the gasket +top threads under the sink Most others use putty or some no callback guys even use caulk I've seen a new foam type gasket that replaces plumbers putting, but I highly doubt they will supply this in the strainer box as a ~kit~
- Plumbers Putty around rim of kitchen sink?? Formica countertop
The putty will already keep the water out of the underside of the sink , if placed in properly He will have a good argument as to why it shouldn't be changed Some sinks that you buy will come with strips of putty (6 pieces , 12" long) to place as a sealant between the sink and the countertop Plumbers putty is no different
- Plumbers Putty swells out - Love Plumbing Remodel
putty No, you should finish tightening the strainer, or rather reset it properly and then retighten it It is oozing out because you did not tighten it enough to squeeze it out in the first place, as time goes by it "settles" itself in and pushes out some of the excess putty You probably had too much putty and some squeezed out under the sink
