Composition
This packing is manufactured from a combination of high purity carbon filaments and pure expanded
mineral graphite yarns with a corrosion inhibitor. It is diagonally braided to give a strong and homogeneous packing.
Packings produced solely from expanded graphite are weak and, where mechanical strenght is required
for use in pumps or valves, the use of graphite filament braided anti-extrusion rings is recommended.
There are no such restrictions with MG-970. The incorporation of the carbon filament reinforcement at the corners enables this new, universal packing to be in both static and dynamic applications where the special thermal and chemical properties and the low coefficient of friction of graphite are needed.
MG-970 I- with Inconel core in the braid to imporve its mechanical resistance.
