Braided from expanded graphite yarn with integrated carbon fibre reinforcement and carbon fibres as corner reinforcements.
Characteristics
• Non-hardening, good reset capability, coefficient of thermal expansion like steel
• Self-lubricating excellent for use in pumps, minimizing the need of flush water
• Universal plant-wide use in static and rotating applications
• Very good dry running characteristic
• Packing should be densified 15-20% during installation We recommend the use of die formed rings
• High temperature resistance, excellent heat and electric conductivity
• Wear and extrusion stability through carbon fibre corner reinforcement
• Recommended shaft hardness HRC*45
Suitable for: Power stations, boiler houses, petrochemical and paper industries
