Graphite 4040 Gland Packing 16 mm

Features of Graphite 4040 Gland Packing (16 mm):

• Pure Graphite Construction: Made from expanded pure graphite yarn, offering excellent thermal and chemical resistance.

• High Thermal Conductivity: Effectively dissipates heat, minimizing risk of overheating and extending equipment life.

• Low Friction Performance: Reduces wear on shafts and sleeves, enabling smooth operation and longer service intervals.

• Wide Temperature Range: Suitable for high-temperature applications up to approximately 550°C in steam (and even higher in inert environments).

• Chemical Resistance: Inert to most chemicals including acids, alkalis, oils, and solvents, except for strong oxidizing agents.

• Pressure Resistant: Withstands high-pressure environments, making it suitable for valves and pumps in demanding operations.

• Flexible and Conformable: Easily adapts to irregular surfaces and maintains an effective seal, even in worn equipment.

• Non-Hardening: Remains soft and pliable over time, reducing the need for frequent adjustments.

• Asbestos-Free: Safe and compliant with modern health and environmental regulations.

Applications and Uses:

• Valves: Ideal for high-pressure and high-temperature valve stem sealing in power plants, refineries, and chemical plants.

• Centrifugal and Reciprocating Pumps: Suitable for sealing shafts in pumps handling steam, hot liquids, and aggressive chemicals.

• Steam Systems: Performs reliably in steam valves and equipment exposed to high thermal stress.

• Power Plants: Used in turbine valves, boiler feed pumps, and auxiliary equipment where high temperature and pressure are common.

• Petrochemical Industry: Effective for sealing in pumps and valves handling hydrocarbons, fuels, and chemical process fluids.

• Chemical Processing Units: Resistant to most corrosive chemicals, making it ideal for acid and alkali handling systems.

• Pharmaceutical & Food Industry (non-contaminating areas): As an asbestos-free, clean sealing solution, it can be used where chemical resistance is required.

• Refineries and Fertilizer Plants: Applied in systems where thermal cycling and chemical exposure are frequent.
