  • Braided and impregnated stuffing box packing
  • Square cross-section
  • Consisting of flexible graphite core with low-wear sheathing made of pure carbon yarn
  • Soluble chloride content below 50 ppm
  • High temperature resistant and good heat dissipation
  • Low leakage
  • Can be used as an end ring for extrusion protection and as a wiper with Merkel® Grafiflex or Merkel® G-Spezial
Most commonly used in the following applications:
  • Sealing of rotating shafts or translating rods
  • Sealing effect due to axial compression by means of stuffing box gland
