Brake switches PTFE

Do you need to PTFE tape brake light switches in the master cylinder?

they are tapered threads so in theory NO, But I have always tended to put a few wraps high up on the thread to help things along!

Yes because it stops the thread galling and any corrosion between the threads causing them to become stuck solid prior to adequate torque/turns being applied.
