Braided from expanded graphite tape, with inconel wire matrix reinforcement & special PTFE film coating
- Avoids slip stick effect
- High cross section density and sealability to minimize emissions
- Wear and extrusion stability through structure reinforcement
- Non-hardening, good reset capability, coefficient of thermal expansion like steel
- Easy to assemble and disassemble
- Low coefficient of friction minimises adjustment force in valvestem
- Rings should be compressed to 25-30% of their height during installation
- We recommend die formed rings
