Description

PILOTPACK 5035 packing is manufactured from a superior performance graphited PTFE yarn in the core and seams with high strength, high modulus meta-aramid yarn for the corners.

When braided using the ‘Crossplait’ technique of manufacture, this produces packing that has high thermal conductivity core and seams so giving low operating temperatures, combined with the meta-aramid corners that produce excellent extrusion resistance.

PILOTPACK 5035 has been specially developed using graphited PTFE with a high-temperature lubricant that is an integral component of the yarn. The meta-aramid yarn is produced by a special process that ensures every single filament is covered by PTFE and a special lubricant. Using these two yarns together gives excellent operating life over a wide range of applications, especially in abrasive media.
