Graphite packing reinforced by cotton fiber
GCCSEAL Style graphite packing made from graphite yarn cross braided. It combines all the advantages of the flexibility, compressibility and eases of installation of a conventional packing; low coefficient of friction and high thermal conductivity; extended shelf life, does not harden. Good alternative to pre-formed graphite ring.
Mainly types:
Graphite packing reinforced by cotton fiber---Traditional graphite packing with cotton fiber in each stand
Graphite packing reinforced by glass fiber ---Use the glass fiber in each strand instead of cotton fiber to reduce the loss on ignition.
Graphite packing with PTFE impregnated
Graphite packing with PTFE corner
Graphite packing with carbon fiber corner
Application areas:
Rotary pumps and valves in power stations and boiler houses, in the petrochemical industry and many other industrial areas.
Application media:
Steam, water, fuel, gases, chemicals, mineral and synthetic oils, effluents. Suitable for all processes, except with highly oxidizing media.
Advantages:
Provide economic alternatives to asbestos packing, reduce maintenance time and cater for very demanding duties. Due to average density is from 1.20gr/ccto1.30gr/cc only, it yields more meters per kg, which makes it very economical.
