This compression packing is supplied in Carbon Filament/TFE with a 3/16 inch square cross section, catalogued under part number 11790187-01. It provides field-serviceable shaft sealing that can be adjusted and topped up without disassembling the pump. Source specification: 1 LB. Box - Approx. 43 FT.

The compound resists strong acids and bases, nearly all industrial chemicals, and oxidizing media. Carbon Filament/TFE is valued for one of the lowest coefficients of friction of any solid and excellent dielectric properties. Applications involving molten alkali metals or service requiring elastic recovery call for a different compound.

It sees regular use in food and beverage, pharmaceutical and biotech, and chemical processing.

11790187-01 ships individually. Unit weight is approximately 1 lb. Review your operating media and conditions against this specification before installation. For a size or compound outside the standard catalog, APG can quote from a print or sample.
