Merkel Carbosteam is braided from flexible carbon yarns
with a special graphite impregnation. Due to its excellent temperature
stability, the packing is especially used in high-temperature steam
applications.
Due to its high pressure and extrusion resistance, Merkel
Carbosteam is ideal as end ring in conjunction with Grafiflex.
