Palmetto #1030AF
Graphited Predominately Kynol*
GENERAL SERVICE
PACKING |
Palmetto 1030AF
is the direct replacement for graphited asbestos. Style 1030AF is
braided from Palmetto's exclusive Quadrasyn™
Predominately Kynol*
composite fiber and heavily
impregnated with our time-proven Impregloid™ solid lubricant system.
Unlike conventional packings, 1030AF does not employ a liquid
lubricant; thus packing shrinkage and the resulting need for
constant gland adjustment is substantially reduced. 1030AF will
provide longer service life and virtually no sleeve wear too!
600ºF (290ºC) 3-11 pH.

TFE/Predominately Kynol*
GENERAL SERVICE
PACKING |
2970 is the
direct replacement for asbestos sheet gasketing. Manufactured of
predominantly Aramid Filament with premium NBR binders assures long
shell life vs. asbestos sheet. Style 2970 is soft and compressible
and is highly recommended for such applications as pipe flanges,
mixers, ovens, kettle, manifolds, digesters, tanks, columns and
pumps. Temp. 750ºF (399ºC). Leachable Chloride content is less than
100 ppm which helps prevent flange pilling. |
Palmetto #1350
Aramid Filament
SLURRY PACKING |
Interwoven™ braid
of Aramid, the strongest synthetic fiber, and impregnated with TFE
dispersion. Designed for abrasive applications where other packings
don't measure up. Temp. 500ºF (260ºC) 3-11pH. Style 1350's inherent
'brute strength' characteristics enable it to withstand 'shearing
and learing' action of abrasive applications. |

PACKING |
Palmetto 1367S
and H are recommended for kettle, mixer, agitator and specifically
non-contamination applications. Virgin TFE assures D-14 pH. and
500ºF (260ºC). Palmetto 1367F (FDA hard) and 1367FS (FDA soft)
comply with FDA requirements. (FDA Title 21, Paragraph
177.1550). |

Graphite/TFE
Composite
UNIVERSAL
CHEMICAL
PACKING |
Super Tephite
resists chemicals with a 0-14 pH. range. #1389 dissipates frictional
heat with a 3300FPM (shaft speed) rating. Tephite is rated at
minimum of 3 to 5 times the life of both TFE and Asbestos packings.
Style #1389 'smart fiber' construction assures universal packing
standardization for under 550ºF (260ºC). |
Palmetto #1585
CARBON FIBER
HIGH
TEMPERATURE
PACKING |
Interwoven™ braid
of carbon fiber, Palcar™ is impregnated with graphite particles,
which makes it ideal for boiler feed pumps, blowers, and driers.
Temp. 1200ºF (650ºC) in steam, 650ºF (345ºC) in oxygen and 2400ºF
(1320ºC) in reducing atmosphere. pH 1-14. Style 1585 exhibits
extremely low coefficient of friction characteristics enabling
dynamic equipment ease of operation and long trouble-free service
life. |
Palmetto #3000
TFE/Cord Gasketing
CUT GASKET
ALTERNATIVE |
Palmetto #3000 is
the non-asbestos gasketing alternative. No more cutting gaskets -
simply peel-off adhesive strip and apply to sealing area overlapping
ends. Seals to 5000 PSI, 0-14 pH., FDA Title 21, (paragraphs
177.1550 and 175.105). Temp. -450ºF to 600ºF (-270ºC to
315ºC). |
Palmetto #1555
SEVERE SERVICE
PACKING |
Manufactured of
graphite yarn and impregnated with graphite particles, this
'universal' packing can be applied almost anywhere. #1555 will
operate at high speeds and temperatures, and is less likely to
succumb to fluid attack than virtually any other type of packing.
Temperature ranges (up to 6000ºF in the absence of oxygen, 1200ºF in
steam, and 800ºF in the presence of oxygen) are unsurpassed by other
packing. #1555 provides extra service life with less down-time,
which means money saved. Fluid loss is reduced due to 1555's ability
to operate with very low leak-off, and energy is conserved
because of graphite's low frictional drag. |

CHEKSEAL
Rotary Bearing
SEAL/EXCLUSION
DEVICE |
The Palmetto
CHEKSEAL™ is a self-adjusting shaft-mounted axial lip seal designed
as an exclusion device, deflecting and excluding contaminants such
as dust, dirt, mud and water. The CHEKSEAL also functions as a
'retainer' seal, preventing the loss of viscous lubricants, such as
heavy greases. Unlike conventional spring-loaded oil seals, the
CHEKSEAL cannot fret or groove expensive shafts and accepts radial
shaft motion due to bearing play. The CHEKSEAL is also designed to
automatically vent excess grease during re-greasing
operations. |
Palmetto #PE1000
Graphite/Aramid
Monofilament
WEAR RESISTANT
HEAT CONDUCTIVE
PACKING |
When strength and
wear resistance is required PE1000 will provide extended service
life with virtually no sleeve scoring. Palmetto Engineers have been
exploring the need for fiber heat dissipation, extrusion resistance,
and suppleness. Recently developed materials have wither been so
very strong that shaft scoring quickly reduced their popularity or
they were kind to the shaft yet too weak to resist extrusion due to
high pressures or wide clearances. PE1000 is truly a break-through
in fiber technology. With heat dissipation of graphite, strength of
aramid
and suppleness of weaker composites, PE1000 is a
development which will help slurry handlers produce better bottom
lines through energy savings, lower sleeve wear, and longer packing
life. |
Palmetto #1347AF
TFE/Synthetic
LOW COST
GENERAL SERVICE
PACKING |
Palmetto Syn-Tex™
is a cost effective combination of absorbent synthetic-textile
staple yarn. The 'thirsty' nature of this proprietary yarn permits a
50% pick-up of virgin PTFE suspensold. The fibers are protected from
chemical attach, running friction is reduced, and sealability is
enhanced. Low gland follower squeeze extends packing and sleeve
life, and decreases motor energy draw. The entire packing is
saturated in our proprietary break-in lubricant which aids in
initial start-up preventing overheating and
glazing. |
Palmetto #1007AF
Graphite/Synthetic
LOW COST
GENERAL
SERVICE
PACKING |
Palmetto 1007AF
is a graphite throughout interwoven braid Syn-Tex yarn. Each strand
of our exclusive synthetic textile yarn is heavily impregnated with
graphite and a proprietary viscous grease prior to braiding. Heat
dissipation is enhanced since the graphite particles are able to
conduct heat through the body of the packing. This is a far superior
method versus surface coatings. The special lubricant (viscous
grease) is engineered to leach out of the packing upon an increase
in frictional heat. This lubricant release will lower friction heat
which automatically reduces the release of internal lubricant. The
self-adjusting flow of internal lubricant increases packing and
sleeve life. |
Palmetto #4062AF
Carbon/wire
STEAM VALVE
PACKING |
4062AF is
manufactured from the highest grade carbon yarn with an Inconel Wire
carrier. This proven material is braided over a core of graphite and
exclusive corrosion inhibitors which prevent stem pitting. 4062AF
non-hardening valve stem packing, will also provide many years of
service in expansion joints. Temp.: To 1200ºF (649ºC). Pressures: To
1200 psi and beyond. |

PAC-KING™
Leak-free
PACKING
DOUGH |
Pac-King is a
milled fibrous, homogeneous 'dough'. It combines chemically inert,
low friction virgin PTFE with pure graphite encapsulation and
lubricant. This perfect triple combination enables zero leakage
sealing of nearly any fluid and withstands temperatures of -450º to
550ºF. In most cases it is recommended to use Palmetto PE1000 end
rings to prevent extrusion at higher pressures. Available in 5 and
20 lb. cans. |

Use the PAC-KING™
injection system to install Palmetto PAC-KING Stuffing Box Sealant
even in equipment operating under pressure. Just insert the PAC-KING
sealant stick into the PAC-KING I.G. ("Injection Gun") and inject
the sealant into the stuffing box. The PAC-KING™ Injection System
fixes leaks before they leak, reducing maintenance hours and
increasing pump service
life. |
