Part number 13CGT015X1000X50 is a Crinkled Graphite Ta Compression Packing built to a 1/64 inch square cross section. A compression packing is cut into rings and stacked in a stuffing box, then compressed by the gland to seal a rotating or reciprocating shaft. Supplementary detail from the product record: Crinkled Graphite Tape.
Crinkled Graphite Ta is specified here for excellent thermal conductivity and fire resistance, exceptional temperature capability well beyond elastomeric materials. The compound resists most chemicals across the pH range, very high temperature, and fire exposure. Exposure to strong oxidizing acids or highly oxidizing service above rated temperature will shorten service life.
It sees regular use in high-temperature process piping, refining, and power generation.
This item is sold by the roll under part number 13CGT015X1000X50. Review your operating media and conditions against this specification before installation. If you need a size, durometer or compound that is not listed, APG can cross-reference from a print, a sample or a competitor part number.
