PTFE Impregnated Gland Packing (VT9D)
PTFE Impregnated Gland Packing (VT9D)
- VT9D is solely manufactured from pure PTFE in the form of fine multi-filament yarns.
- The PTFE yarns are further vacuum impregnated with PTFE dispersion to enable the packing to handle steam and gas services as well as liquids.
- This PTFE packing offers exceptional chemical resistance along with high strength and low coefficient of friction.
- The inter-braid construction and the fact that VT9D will not harden in service over many years of usage, ensures that a valve packing with VT9D is packed for life.
- As a packing seal, VT9D is far superior to machined or moulded PTFE rings in that its tensile strength is 20 times higher, but at a fraction of the cost.
- VT9D has a tensile strength of up to 50,000 PSI (3,500kg/cm²).
