CONSTRUCTION
Style 2000 packing is manufactured from high purity flexible graphite that is expanded and formed into a braidable yarn and then braided without binders or wire reinforcement. The finished product retains all the inherent benefits of flexible graphite: heat resistance, chemical inertness, low friction, self lubrication, and ready conformability.

APPLICATION/SERVICE
The outstanding properties of this style make it a truly multi-service packing capable of a wide variety of uses throughout a plant. This style may be used in valves, pumps, expansion joints, mixers and agitators in the hostile environments of hydrocarbon processing, pulp and paper, power generation, metal-working and other industries where effective sealing is vital.

Style 2001 packing is a rugged premium grade, low friction, high strength, proprietary graphite fiber, twisted together and interlock braided. This style contains a special lubricant to provide a bearing film, and protect shafts from scoring. It also acts as a blocking agent to prevent wicking.

APPLICATION/SERVICE
Style 2001 packing is ideally suited for use in severe service valves and rotary shaft applications. It handles strong acids and alkali solutions except fuming nitric acid, oleum and fluorine. It can be used to seal steam, water, oil, solvents, alkalis, and acids. It is often used as end rings for packing sets utilizing softer packings that might tend to extrude. This style also handles high temperatures, extremely high shaft speeds (see Service Limits below), most strong chemicals, and reduces shaft wear.

CONSTRUCTION
Style 2002 packing is manufactured from pure carbon yarn, which is interlock braided and impregnated with proprietary lubricants and graphite particles which fill voids, block leakage, and act as break-in lubricant. The end product has a low coefficient of friction and tends to wear more evenly than most braided packings.

APPLICATION/SERVICE
Style 2002 handles water, steam, boiler feed, and aqueous solutions of acids and alkalis. In service, it seats quickly and does not require extensive break-in adjustments. This style is commonly used for high speed pumps, blowers, dryers, high temperature valves, and furnace gasketing.

CONSTRUCTION
Style 2103t packing is an interlock braid of carbon fibers which are carefully impregnated with PTFE and a special lubricant. The resulting packing is very tough, resists wear, has excellent chemical resistance and prevents contamination.

APPLICATION/SERVICE
Style 2103t packing can handle chemicals over the entire 0-14 pH range except for strong oxidizers. It is very popular in the pulp and paper industry because it is especially designed for applications involving strong caustics, acids, bleaches, slurries, and services where contamination cannot be tolerated. This style is commonly used in valves and pumps, agitators, reactors, and autoclaves.

CONSTRUCTION
Style 2202 packing is diagonally braided from pure, expanded flexible graphite, reinforced at the corners and throughout with high-quality carbon fibers. The carbon fiber reinforcement in the corners and body of the packing make it three times more resistant to extrusion and also increase the pressure handling capabilities compared to non-reinforced flexible graphite packing.
