Carbon Packing with Graphite Particles

Carbon packing with graphite particles will help control maintenance costs, without compromising performance in rotational equipment.

Description

Carbon packing with graphite particles is made from pure carbon yarn, which is impregnated with proprietary lubricants and graphite particles. The graphite particles act as a solid lubricant, reducing friction, resistance to wear, and higher thermal conductivity.

Features and Benefits

Provides a low coefficient of friction and a long service life
Unparalleled economy and performance
Compatible with a wide variety of chemicals
Easy to install and remove

Applications

Carbon packing with graphite particles is advised for general service on rotary and reciprocating shafts on high-temperature valves. It is commonly ideal for use in high-speed pumps, blowers, dryers, and high-temperature valves. It also handles water, steam, boiler feed, and aqueous solutions of acids and alkalis
