breachplug question

[loadbreak]

i just bought a new T/C omega and the salesman recomended a type of threadtape for the plug rather than grease.does anyone else use this,does it work or did he give me bad info??

Go to Lowe's or Home Depot and get the pink Teflon tape. Save that excess money to buy powder! :lol:

Loadbreak welcome to the forum. It is good to have you here.

Yes, a lot of people use the T/C pink tape or the use simple white Teflon Plumbers tape. This is to help the breech plug release after being shot. You can also use an anti seize grease on it and it will do the same thing. I personally use a combination of the two. I like to know that plug is going to come out at the end of the day.

The reason a lot of them use the tape is there is less mess...

I use the white TEFLON tape you can pick it up at any hardware or walmart
But I also aply a thin layer of grease.

Yes the regular truck anti seize you apply to certain auto bolts to insure that they will be able to be removed at a later date will work just fine...

I like to use Slick 50 one grease. I just started using it, and it works great.
