A premium grade graphite yarn packing that is rugged enough to meet many industrial high-temperature applications. Compared to most braided packings, it reduces shaft wear, requires less run-in, and better resists many strong chemicals. Low coefficient of friction and good thermal conductivity make G-200 ideal for rotary shafts of pumps, agitators, mixers, crystallizers, filters, continuous digesters, reciprocating pump rods and slip-type expansion joints.
