Do you mean Teflon tape?

Amazon got my new Makita compressor to me today, as promised, in two
delivery days, and without charging me for shipping.

It arrived in a sturdy, padded cardboard box via FEDEX. No damage.

So, I opened the pressure and regulator valves, poured in the oil and let
it run for its 20-minute break-in, per the manual. Yes, I RTFM.

It's very quiet, much more quiet than any other similar compressor I have
encountered. Makita was not lying. Seems to be nicely made, too.

Now, I have a set of Porter Cable accessories, but I don't seem to have
any nylon tape around. I presume, and this is my question, that one still
needs to use nylon tape on air tool screw-in fittings? Or has technology
changed?
