15 TAPE |
Ribbon form of extremely pure graphite, with no impregnants, binders, additives, oils, or greases, which could possibly leave the packing and reduce its volume or contaminate the process media. |
Expanded graphite tape, with or without pressure-sensitive adhesive, or smoother finish |
Often used alone. Can be installed between end rings of INTER-LOCK graphite filament packing (Style 1342). |
Oxidizing media►-328°F to +932°F Continuous in reducing or inert media►+5432°F Steam►+1200°F |

15TR |
Die-formed center rings of expanded graphite tape with anti-extrusion end rings of interlock braided graphite yarn. Available with Belleville Disc Springs providing increased bolt tension and seal pressures when the bolts creep at higher temperatures and are stretched by differential expansion between the gland entry face and bolt. |
Die-formed expanded graphite tape. |
Useful for applications involving exceptionally high temperatures and pressures, particularly superheated steam, or where the stuffing box is worn or where clearances between the stem and the bottom of the stuffing box exceed 0.020". |
