The Do's and Don'ts of Aseembling Threaded Plastic Fittings Today, there are millions of miles of plastic piping with threaded fittings, providing reliable, leak-free service. However, a tiny percentage of those threaded plastic fittings may leak or break. The reason for this is improper assembly of threaded joints. Here are some of the Do's and Don'ts of PVC joint assembly. Don't over-tighten joints by giving them "one more turn to be sure." Do finger tighten plus one or two turns- No More. Don't wrap Teflon tape or Teflon paste or pipe dope to add bulk to or to lubricate the joint.
