Merkel Gland Packing Carbosteam S 6555

Merkel Carbosteam S consists of  flexible graphite core with a wear-resistant carbon yarn jacket. Besides the good elasticity and large cross sectional density, this packing has a continuous volume stability. The jacket is sealed and heat-resistant. The graphite-filled impregnation facilitates fitting and the sliding behaviour on the spindle is optimized.

The content of soluble chloride for this packing is below 50 ppm.

Merkel Carbosteam S is used in particular in power generation and is used in all industries where high temperatures and aggressive media are used.
