Style 3000T Mechanical Pump & Valve Packing, 3/8" SQUARE, 5 Pound Spool

Style 3000T is an excellent multi-service packing that finds a wide variety of uses throughout a plant. It handles steam, water, solvents, oils, mild acids and alkalies, and a broad range of other chemicals. It is white in color and will not discolor the flow media. This style is recommended for use in centrifugal, rotary and reciprocating pumps: mixers, agitators, door grooves, expansion joints, blenders, and knife gate valves.. Style 3000T, is a cost-effective combination of absorbent synthetic-textile staple yarn. The “thirsty” nature of this yarn permits a 50 percent pick-up of virgin PTFE suspensoid. This protects fibers from chemical attack, reduces running friction, and enahances sealability. The material’s low gland follower squeeze extends packing and sleeve life and decreases motor energy draw. The entire packing is saturated in our proprietary break-in lubricant, improving initial start-up and preventing overheating and glazing.
