Pure Carbon Yarn Gland Packing

Description

Carbon yarn gland packing is a braided material made of carbon yarns that is used to seal valves and pumps. It is often used in high-temperature and high-pressure applications, such as in power plants, oil refineries, and boiler industries. 

How it works 

• Carbon yarn gland packing is made from carbon yarns that are braided together.
• The yarns are often impregnated with graphite particles and lubricants to help stop leakage.
• The packing is sometimes reinforced with nickel inconel wire to increase its mechanical strength.

What it’s used for 

• Carbon yarn gland packing can be used to seal valves and pumps that handle steam, water, acids, and alkalis.
• It can be used in high-temperature motor-actuated valves and steam turbines.

What are its properties?

• Carbon yarn gland packing is resistant to corrosion and abrasion. 
• It has excellent thermal stability and strength. 
• It is inert to most corrosive chemicals. 
• It has a positive temperature coefficient of strength, meaning it gets stronger as the temperature increases

Properties

• Thermal conductivity: Carbon yarn gland packing has excellent thermal conductivity. 
• Chemical resistance: Carbon yarn gland packing is resistant to many chemicals, but not strong oxidizing agents. 
• Strength: Carbon yarn gland packing is strong and resistant to extrusion. 
• Temperature resistance: Carbon yarn gland packing can withstand high temperatures. 
• Pressure resistance: Carbon yarn gland packing can withstand high pressures. 
• Lubrication: Carbon yarn gland packing can be impregnated with lubricants to improve its self-lubrication. 

Applications 

• Carbon yarn gland packing is used in pumps and valves in power plants, oil refineries, and boiler industries.
• It can handle steam, water, acids, and alkalis.
• It can be used in high temperature and high pressure applications
