This graphite core packing is made from 100% PTFE yarns graphited through the core and silicone lubricated. It is specifically designed for dynamic sealing applications on rotating pumps handling chemically aggressive fluids.
The addition of graphite in the core improves packing elasticity, reduces running-in time and allows longer intervals between adjustments while ensuring optimum sealing performance under low compression.
Graphite significantly reduces friction, providing real water and energy savings. Unlike elastomers, it withstands most chemical agents, including mineral agents and solvents, while offering excellent resistance to ageing and temperature variations.
