Ordered as 11710500-01, this is a Braided Flexible Graphite Compression Packing with a 1/2 inch square cross section. The compression packing seals the shaft while allowing controlled leakage that lubricates and cools the packing set. This item is further identified as 1 LB. Box - Approx. 8 FT.
As a material, Braided Flexible Graphite offers excellent thermal conductivity and fire resistance, no aging, hardening or embrittlement over time. Expect good resistance to most chemicals across the pH range, steam, and thermal shock. Exposure to highly oxidizing service above rated temperature or strong oxidizing acids will shorten service life.
Typical settings include refining, exhaust and flue gas, and steam and heat transfer systems.
11710500-01 ships individually. Unit weight is approximately 1 lb. Review your operating media and conditions against this specification before installation. APG supports cross-referencing from drawings, samples and competitor numbers when a listed size is not an exact fit.
