 Male RCA Plug Shootout. A DIY Deee-Lite!  by Steven R. Rochlin
Like virtually all male RCA plugs in this article, Teflon is used to insure proper isolation of the main body's center pin from the outer shield piece (for the uninitiated, this is the white stuff that separates the center pin from the outside shield when viewing inside the front of an RCA plug).
Of course Teflon is used as a insulator between the center pin and outer shield as with the Clearaudio (and virtually all RCA connectors).
