PTFE Impregnated Lubricant Ramie Gland Packing (VT5)
PTFE Impregnated Lubricant Ramie Gland Packing (VT5)
- Type VT5 is an outstanding PTFE impregnated and lubricated packing, made to replace traditional PTFE asbestos packing, without sacrificing the strength and natural sealing qualities of Asbestos.
- Asbestos replacement packing normally has a payoff in terms of capabilities of the fibre used, or in terms of cost.
- VT5 is a low cost, quality packing giving outstanding service life.
- VT5 is braided from natural Ramie fibres which are extremely strong and therefore highly resistant to wear and to rotting.
- A long term PTFE impregnation is bound to each yarn in a special process and the packing is further treated with inert lubricants.
- VT5 PTFE Ramie fibre packing is especially suitable for aqueous mixtures containing abrasive media such as found in the water, sewage, paper and marine industries.
- VT5 is non-staining and smooth running to give a high level of shaft protection.
- This packing is characterised by its long service life with high mechanical strength and excellent volumetric stability.
