PTFE Graphite gland packing with carbon fiber yarn

Material composition
Diagonally braided from high quality pure carbon fibre yarn,
treated with a special mixture of graphite, PTFE - dispersion
and corrosion inhibitor.
Please note: the colour of the actual product might vary from
the above image on this data-sheet.
Properties
It lacks the usual stiffness of
conventional carbon packings. Good flexibility and heat
dissipating properties, very low coefficient of friction.
Excellent chemical and thermal stability.
Application areas
Steam valves and valves in general, rotary kilns, autoclaves,
pyrolysis and calcinosis, but also for mixers, refiners and
similar rotary equipment.
Benefits
Because It is a very affordable high quality
all-round packing, many companies have standardized on
it. Because its coefficient of thermal expansion is very
similar to that of steel it needs less adjustments of the
gland. Low coefficient of friction means low shaft wear.
It closes the gap (also price-wise) between
conventional packings and pure graphite packings.
Application media
It covers the full pH-range and can be used
with nearly all media: cold and hot water, steam, chemicals,
hot gases, alcohol, solvents, heat transfer agents, etc.
Not suitable for
Highly concentrated corrosive acids.
