Service
Style 1007AF is a graphite InterwovenTM braid Syn-Tex yarn. Each strand of our exclusive synthetic textile yarn is heavily impregnated with graphite and a proprietary viscous grease prior to braiding. The graphite particles conduct heat through the body of the packing, delivering enhanced heat dissipation versus surface coatings. The special lubricant is engineered to leach out of the packing, to lower frictional heat, and automatically reduce the release of internal lubricant. This self-adjusting flow increases packing and sleeve life.
Typical Applications
Centrifugal pumps, mixers, agitators, reactors, and valves handling mild acids, mild caustics, steam, oils, brine, slurries and water. Reciprocating plunger pumps in sewage treatment.
