Description
The Chesterton 1760 PTFE/Graphite High Speed Pump Packing is a unique packing consisting of a PTFE yarn lubricated with graphite particles. The finished packing is further lubricated with a special silicone oil for quick break-in. The 1760 packing features an extremely low coefficient of friction, lower than 100% PTFE fiber or combination PTFE fiber and PTFE suspensoid packings. The lubricants that are embedded in the tightly braided packings act as a heat transfer medium to dissipate heat generated at the pump shaft, allowing it to travel through the packing to the walls of the stuffing box. The 1760 packing also provides 13% less thermal expansion than pure PTFE packings for less frictional drag and lower heat at higher shaft speeds.
