1/4" NON-ASBESTOS ARAMID FIBER PACKING

APG stocks the 11780250-10, an Aramid Filament Compression Packing measuring a 1/4 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: 10 LB. Box - Approx. 247 FT.

Expect good resistance to elevated temperature and pressure, process media, and shaft wear. That behavior comes from the compound itself: Aramid Filament is specified for field-cuttable rings for fast, inexpensive repacking, controlled leakage that lubricates and cools the shaft. Rated for service to approximately 500°F. Verify compatibility before use with over-tightening of the gland or running dry without flush.

Common environments for this compound include water and process plants, centrifugal and reciprocating pumps, and valves and agitators.

11780250-10 ships individually. Unit weight is approximately 10 lb. Confirm chemical compatibility, pressure and temperature against your own application requirements before installing.
