The 11780562-10 is an Aramid Filament Packing Compression Packing with a 9/16 inch square cross section. This compression packing is cut into rings and stacked in a stuffing box, then compressed by the gland to seal a rotating or reciprocating shaft. Supplementary detail from the product record: 10 LB. Box - Approx. 50 FT.
Expect good resistance to elevated temperature and pressure, shaft wear, and process media. That behavior comes from the compound itself: Aramid Filament Packing offers a braided construction that conforms to the stuffing box, controlled leakage that lubricates and cools the shaft. Rated for service to approximately 500°F. It should not be specified for service in running dry without flush or over-tightening of the gland.
Typical settings include centrifugal and reciprocating pumps, water and process plants, and mixers and rotary equipment.
Reference part number 11780562-10 when ordering; the item is sold individually. Unit weight is approximately 10 lb. Application requirements vary, so validate compatibility with your process conditions prior to installation.
