The 11711000-05 is a Braided Flexible Graphite Compression Packing built to a 1 inch square cross section. This compression packing seals the shaft while allowing controlled leakage that lubricates and cools the packing set. Supplementary detail from the product record: 5 LB. Box - Approx. 11 FT.
Braided Flexible Graphite is specified here for excellent thermal conductivity and fire resistance, near-zero creep relaxation under load. Expect good resistance to most chemicals across the pH range, steam, and thermal shock. Verify compatibility before use with highly oxidizing service above rated temperature or strong oxidizing acids.
Common environments for this compound include high-temperature process piping, steam and heat transfer systems, and power generation.
Reference part number 11711000-05 when ordering; the item is sold individually. Unit weight is approximately 5 lb. Check the compound against your process media, pressure and temperature before committing to a design.
