Ramie fiber yarn packing treated graphite is a well lubricated, medium-hard packing with very low frictional characteristics, which assure minimal shaft wear.
Ramie fiber yarn packing treated graphite is braided with high quality ramie yarns in a square plait construction. The yarns are heavily treated with a petroleum based lubricant and graphite.
Ramie fiber yarn packing treated graphite 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. Ramie fiber yarn packing treated graphite is also used in the pulp and paper, water or wastewater, and mining industries where a softer packing is desired for lower pressure hydraulic applications.
