Flexible expanded graphite strands braided together the carbon yarns and impreganted with graphite powder and inhibitor of corrosion.
The graphite packing style GR8048, which combines carbon yarns and expanded mineral graphite is impregnated with a special solution based on pure graphite powder and corrosion inhibitor to improve the sealing performance while minimizing fugitive emissions. The packing style GR8048 shows great elasticity and reliability at high temperatures.
The graphite packing style GR8048 is extremely versatile thanks to the double yarns. It can be applied indifferently both in static services at high temperature and pressure and in dynamic services including that of soot blowers and those with diathermic oil. The graphite packing style GR8048 can be used with all non-oxidizing fluids and compatible with graphite.

Never use the product to the maximum temperature and pressure associated. Consult the manufacturer for further information
The peak temperature can be sustained for short exposures
With weakly oxidizing agents and hot air the temperature must be limited to 450 ° C
With steam and non-oxidizing fluids the temperature must be limited to 650 ° C
Graphite and carbon cannot be used with oxidizing fluids
