Box - Approx. 22 FT.
Expect good resistance to steam, most chemicals across the pH range, and thermal shock. Braided Flexible Graphite is widely chosen for near-zero creep relaxation under load and exceptional temperature capability well beyond elastomeric materials. Applications involving highly oxidizing service above rated temperature or strong oxidizing acids call for a different compound.
Typical settings include steam and heat transfer systems, power generation, and high-temperature process piping.
Reference part number 11711000-10 when ordering; the item is sold individually. Unit weight is approximately 10 lb. Check the compound against your process media, pressure and temperature before committing to a design.
