Service
Palmetto Style 1387 is premium PTFE Graphite packing with no
added lubrication, which generally results in less tightening
required. We consider 1387 the “dry" PTFE/Graphite packing, which can
help prevent extrusion from pressure.
1387 recommended for static,
reciprocating or hydraulic type
applications. Ideal for large turbines
since requires fewer adjustments to
seal. Okay for use in rotating pumps,
but not recommended for fast shaft
speeds.
