Plumber has fitted a mini expansion vessel using a brass tee piece for potable/drinking water but used a combination of jointing compound, pipe sealing cord and possibly PTFE tape. There's loads of this combination on the expansion vessel thread.
Is mixing of the multiple pastes and fibres on a single thread at the same time (unknown reactions or not hardening properly etc) something to be concerned about for drinking water?
I can't say for sure which products have been combined but it looked to be:
Jet-Lube V-2 Plus - https://www.diy.com/departments/jet-lube-jointing-compound-300g/191085_BQ.prd
and
Loctite 55 (coated with its own paste) - https://www.henkel-adhesives.com/uk/en/product/thread-sealants/loctite_55.html
and maybe some white PTFE tape.
Thanks
