Braided Packing

 

Style #420



Maximum values-temperature, pH and speed-should not be combined on any one application without careful consultation. Common sense balancing of factors is always wise.

As with any product designed to operate in critical operations, this product and its installation must be clearly understood. In addition, the user should have full knowledge of the operating considerations of the equipment in which it is to be installed.
Construction
Made of special, high-strength PTFE yarn which is pre-lubricated and impregnated with a PTFE dispersion. Braided in the Seal Ryt cross-lock construction.

Characteristics
Highly chemical resistant and anti-frictional. Inert to virtually all chemicals. Most suitable for use in chemical valve sealing where a clean, dense, impervious packing with the attributes of a firm all-Teflon packing are desired.

Reported Values of Performance

 Temperature to 500 F
 PH 1-14
 Surface Velocity to 850 FPM

Suitable for most chemical services, most common exceptions being molten alkali metals, fluorine (at elevated temperatures) and complex halogen compounds (such as chlorine triflouride). Not suggested for abrasive services.
