Style 219 Vegetable Fiber/PTFE
Packing
Construction: Square Braid Features: Highest quality vegetable
fiber; bark, coarse and short fibers have been
removed. Treatment:
Impregnated with PTFE dispersion and a special break-in
oil. Equipment:
Reciprocating and rotary shafts. Our best stern tube
packing. Recommended For:
Brine, cold water and cold oil. Limitations: Shaft speeds to 1855 FPM;
temperatures to 220F/104C; pH range 5 - 9. Remarks: PTFE impregnate acts
as: (1) a surface leveler filling any surface voids. (2) a
saturate to prevent wicking. (3) a lubricant to reduce
friction and heat. (4) a protective shield around flax
fibers, preventing fluid penetration and fiber break
down.
