Premium Braided Mechanical Packing
Style 2017
Premium Quality
SWEET SPOT & BEST USES:
The "Tough Stuff". Pre-twisted carbon with monolithic polymer filament. Super heat conductivity. Great for harsh mining environments like bauxite, gold, copper, coal, phosphate, etc. Pulp and paper applications include Liquors and Paper stock.
Ultra-high performance packing for harsh heavy solids applications
Construction
High performance, engineering polymer based monofilament pre-twisted with 99.6% carbon yarn, asymmetric matrix, interbraided.
Characteristics
- Monofilament polymer portion exhibits very high tensile strength which resists “picking” and fraying.
- Carbon yarn portion exhibits significant heat dissipation.
- Pretwisting of both yields all characteristics present through entire matrix
- Both textiles much “easier” on shafts than all other synthetics
Applications
Mining rope packing. Gold mining. Liquor pumps. Paper stock pumps. Slurries.
