Packing Application Guide By Industry

Waste / Water Treatment

1389 100% GFO®

PTFE/graphite packing with lubrication. Long service life with reduced shaft wear.

1382

PTFE/graphite with lubrication. Lower cost alternative to 1389 GFO®.

1359

PTFE/graphite with lubrication and yellow aramid corners. Helps to prevent packing extrusion. Often used as “end rings” with 1389 or 1382.

1030AF

Quadrasyn™ composite packing comprised of multiple yarns and added graphite coating. Good general service packing.

1367FS

White PTFE packing for clean water applications.

1367H

White PTFE packing for clean water applications.

Food & Pharmaceutical

1367FS

White PTFE packing with mineral oil lubrication for dynamic applications, non- contaminating, best chemical compatibility.

1367H

White PTFE packing with no lubrication for static applications, non- contaminating, best chemical compatibility.

1364

White PTFE with yellow aramid corners. A clean and durable packing. Often used in large mixers.

Power Generation

5080

Braided flexible graphite with carbon corners. Can be used to standardize for pumps and valves.

5000

Braided flexible graphite (no wire) for static and dynamic applications (low pressure steam valves and pumps).

1585

Carbon with graphite coating for high temperatures and fast shaft speeds. (boiler feed and condensate pumps).

5000W

Braided flexible graphite with inconel wire for steam valve service.

5010

Braided flexible graphite with inconel wire for steam valve service.

1389 100% GFO®

PTFE/graphite packing with lubrication. Long service life with reduced shaft wear.

Slurry / Mining / Asphalt

PE1000

Black aramid with graphite/PTFE. Strong durable packing that does not damage shafts like traditional aramid.

1350

Para-Aramid (yellow) filament packing for high pressure / slurry service.

1371

Meta-Aramid (white) where strength and a wider pH is required.

1389 100% GFO®

PTFE/graphite packing with lubrication. Long service life with reduced shaft wear.

1359

PTFE/graphite with lubrication and yellow aramid corners. Helps to prevent packing extrusion. Often used as “end rings” with 1389 or 1382.
