Packing Merkel® Carboflex 6587

• Sealing of rotating shafts or translating rods
• Sealing effect due to axial compression by means of stuffing box gland
• Very stable behaviour in terms of volume
• No uncontrolled heat development at high sliding speeds, due to low coefficient of expansion, low coefficient of friction and ability to overcome critical running-in phase more easily
• Favourable running-in process due to special lubricant and impregnation adapted to carbon fibre

Most commonly used in the following applications:

• Pumps
• Designed for high-speed centrifugal pumps
