This remarkable yarn is constructed from PTFE and Graphite intimately blended and locked and then treated with a high temperature, break-in lubricant.
It is essentially chemically inert over the entire pH range. The unique combination of locked Graphite and PTFE creates a yarn with very high thermal conductivity, that does not harden, shrink, swell or dry out and that is exceptionally smooth running with negligible shaft wear.
Applications:
For use wherever the value of the best quality and material packing can be realised.
Since the actual purchase cost of a packing is typically only 3% of the true utilisation cost,
Vulcan recommends this PTFE GRAPHITE packing for all possible applications.
They will increase service life whilst minimising wear and gland adjustments, against nearly all media in static, rotary and reciprocating uses.
