GORE™ Valve Stem Packing
Technical Information
| PACKING FOR VALVE STEMS AND STUFFING
BOXES |
|
Pliable and Conformable
|
| Made in a unique new
process, with 100% expanded PTFE, GORE™ Valve Stem Packing
offers a high degree of pliability. This allows the packing to conform
to worn valve stems and stuffing boxes, eliminating the need for expensive
repairs to older valves.

|
Longer Service Life
|
| GORE™ Valve Stem Packing has consistently outperformed other packings. Seals made
with GORE™ Valve Stem Packing last longer because the unique
fibril structure of the material provides better strength, moldability
and conformability. GORE™ Valve Stem Packing flows into
imperfections in both the stem and stuffing box. The softness and
self-lubricating nature of GORE™ Valve Stem Packing practically
eliminates stem wear. |
|
Versatility and Performance
|
| GORE™ Valve Stem Packing will not deteriorate with age, has a low coefficient
of friction and withstands temperatures from -240°C to +270°C,
for short periods to +315°C. In addition, GORE™ Valve Stem Packing is unaffected by all common chemicals and will not contaminate
product flow. It is ideal for use in the food and beverage, chemical
processing, pharmaceutical and petroleum refining industries.
