PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 224 Tight Seal is a new premium, copper base compound that has been developed with a higher friction factor. The elevated friction factor of 224 Tight Seal may offer properties not normally seen by typical tool joint compounds; for example, decreasing the likelihood of pipe backing off.
