Merkel Gland Packing Carboflex 6587

Merkel Carboflex behaves with good volume stability and almost universal chemical resistance. The low elongation coefficient, a small friction value and the ability to overcome the critical running- in phase prevents sudden, uncontrolled production of heat at high sliding speeds. The impregnation selected to suit the carbon fibres as well as the especially selected lubricant benefits the running-in process.

Production advantages

• Good chemical resistance
• Good heat dissipation
• Low friction.
