1. Re: LAX- how much time should I allow between flights??? First off, LAX has 8 terminals, number 1 through 7, plus the Tom Bradley International Terminal, sometimes referred to as TBIT, or Terminal 3.5, as it is located between terminals 3 and 4.
Tips & Warnings. 1  If you have problems attaching the fitting and you need to unscrew it and try again, don't use the same teflon tape that's already on the pipe, as it will be torn and balling up. 2  Run your thumb and forefinger around the thread counter-clockwise to pull off the tape, then re-apply a new piece.
Teflon tape or pipe dope. Tape should be used when dealing with plastic fitting mainly plastic male thread water fitting, reason being if you use pipe dope on plastic male threaded fitting for water supply, the dope tends to make the threads too slick causing overtighting of the fitting.ow we use a combo of teflon tape with pipe dope on all metalic male water fitting and pipe, this ensures it will have a possitive seal each and evreytime.
