EagleBurgmann

introduces Buraflex 2000 HT compression packing E agleBurgmann Germany GmbH & Co Kg has introduced a generalpurpose, stuffing box packing called Buraflex 2000 HT.

This compression packing is particularly suitable for installation in pumps, for example, in power-generating systems, and in valves and fittings, agitators or fans.

The braided packing is made of elastic, expanded pure graphite foil combined with a protective edge reinforcement and a lubricant. It is designed to be used in rotating applications at a peripheral speed of up to 40 m/s and a maximum 60-bar pressure from the medium.

Specific quality characteristics include outstanding cross-sectional sealing and structural strength, says EagleBurgmann. Its good sliding qualities also result in substantial improvements in friction values when used in valves and fittings.

Because of the good properties of the base material, this compression packing can be used at high temperatures (+250°C) without any problems, claims the firm.
