Braided Flexible Graphite offers near-zero creep relaxation under load and no aging, hardening or embrittlement over time. The material holds up against steam, most chemicals across the pH range, and fire exposure. Applications involving strong oxidizing acids or highly oxidizing service above rated temperature call for a different compound.

Maintenance and OEM teams specify it across refining, steam and heat transfer systems, and high-temperature process piping.

11710625-05 ships individually. Unit weight is approximately 5 lb. Confirm chemical compatibility, pressure and temperature against your own application requirements before installing.
