GH-3100
Ramie Fiber with PTFE Packing (NA) Construction:
The packing
is manufactured from the finest quality ramie yarns with PTFE
suspensoid in a square plait construction. An additional break-in
lubricant is added to minimize shaft wear and to allow for expansion
during the break-in period.
Application:
It is
a well lubricated, medium-hard packing with very low frictional
characteristics, which assures minimal shaft wear. The ramie
yarn is rot and mildew resistant, making the packing ideal for
marine use, handling cold water, salt water and cold oils. In
the marine industry, it is recommended for sealing stern tube
and rudder post stuffing boxes. GH-3100 packing is also used
for certain pump and valve applications in the pulp and paper,
water/wastewater, and mining industries. |

GH-3110
Ramie Fiber with Graphite Packing (NA) Construction:
This packing is braided with high quality ramie yarns in a square
plait construction. The yarns are heavily treated with a petroleum
based lubricant and graphite.
Application: GH-3110 is
a well lubricated, medium-hard packing with very low frictional
characteristics, which assure minimal shaft wear. The ramie
yarn is rot and mildew resistant, making the packing ideal for
marine use, handling cold water, salt water, and cold oils.
In the marine industry it is commonly used in stern tubes, rudder
posts, and tail shaft liners. The packing is also used in the
pulp and paper, water/wastewater, and mining industries where
a softer packing is desired for lower pressure hydraulic applications. |
