PTFE Valve Stem Packing
100% TFE fluorocarbon that withstands vibration, severe corrosion, high temperature and pressure conditions for the life of the valve. Its pliability allows the TFE to conform to worn valve stems and stuffing boxes.
Works where other packings
fail. Withstands temperatures of -400º to +500ºF (-240º to +260ºC) and pressures to 500 psi for general conditions.
Features and Benefits:
• Easier
and faster to install
• Virtually inert to all chemicals
• Low coefficient of friction
• Long service life, never hardens
• Compensates
for waviness and scratches
• Gland pressure compresses TFE into a custom molded packing ring
• Reduces packing inventory—one
size will fit wide range of applications
• Will not contaminate product flow
Applications: All Valve Stems, as a Packing on some Small, Low-Speed and Low-Pressure Pumps, for all Services including Process Lines in Food and Beverage Plants, in Chemical Operations, Petroleum Refineries, and Food Services.
