Braided graphite packing 2235

high-temperaturefor the chemical industryfor petrochemical applications

is made from layers of flexible graphite tape plied into compact strands; each individual filament is reinforced with an Inconel* wire jacket. This yarn is then square braided to form a dense yet malleable packing, which is subsequently treated with lubricating agents to reduce stem friction and a corrosion inhibitor to prevent pitting (* Inconel is a registered trademark of International Co.). Teadit style 2235 is a high-performance valve packing, especially designed for high-pressure, high-temperature steam service. It is self-lubricating, non-hardening, dimensionally stable and easy to install. The Inconel wire mesh covering makes this packing highly resistant to extrusion, the advanced construction assures superior leakage control and highest integrity in steam service. Typical applications for Style 2235 include control and block valves, as well as other demanding applications in power plants, refineries and similar industries where high pressures and high temperatures are prevailing. It is designed for steam applications, Teadit Style 2235 can also be used with most chemicals and gases. It is not suitable for highly oxidizing agents at high temperature. High mechanical and thermal stability; chemically inert within pH range 0 - 14; quick and easy to install; suitable for rotary and rising-stem valves; low friction, special lubricating system; corrosion inhibitor.
