11800625-05 is a G.F.O. Packing Compression Packing with a 5/8 inch square cross section. In service, this compression packing seals the shaft while allowing controlled leakage that lubricates and cools the packing set. The catalog record notes: 5 LB. Box - Approx. 18 FT.
As a material, G.F.O. Packing offers controlled leakage that lubricates and cools the shaft, a braided construction that conforms to the stuffing box. It resists elevated temperature and pressure, process media, and shaft wear. Rated for service to approximately 550°F. It is not the right choice where over-tightening of the gland or running dry without flush are present.
You will find this material specified across mixers and rotary equipment, water and process plants, and centrifugal and reciprocating pumps.
Order part number 11800625-05, sold individually. Unit weight is approximately 5 lb. As always, verify media compatibility and operating conditions against the requirements of your specific application. For a size or compound outside the standard catalog, APG can quote from a print or sample.
