Thermoflon SL 6230/SL
Features
Thermoflon SL 6230/SL is a diagonally braided packing made from graphite-incorporated PTFE yarn with additional lubricant. With its universal structure, the packing is used in almost every branch of industry.
Advantages
- Treats shafts gently
- Extremely low friction coefficients
- No stick-slip effect
- Highly flexible
- High volumetric stability
- Outstanding functional efficiency
- Very high thermal conductivity
- No embrittlement
- Does not age

Notes
For sealing hot water pumps, the required leakage must always emerge in liquid form in order to lubricate the packing. The compression packing will have to be cooled via a lantern ring or a jacket, gland or shaft cooling system if the heat radiation via the stuffing box housing is not sufficient.
