Thermoflon SL 6230/SL is a diagonally braided packing made from graphite-incorporated PTFE yarn with additional lubricant. This packing solution is suitable for many industrial sectors, like e.g. oil and gas industry, petrochemical industry or chemical industry.
Advantages:
Gentle to the shaft
Low friction with no "stick-slip" effect
High flexibility
Great volumetric stability
Good functionality
No ageing
Long service-life
Good thermal conductivity
