Paste for gas meters

[jase158]

Hi all,
As we all know gas pipe should be sealed as it comes into the house. In the gas meter there is some paste you can use, what is this called?

BES sell it. I always keep a tub in the wagon as sleeve not sealed is classified as AR and it's far easier to slap a bit around the pipe than turn off and fill in all the paperwork.

Need it for new installs too!

When a sparks drills through the back of the gas meter box he deserves to be given some donkey dick, but the donkey may be scared for life lol
