STYLE 2060
Expanded PTFE
Yarn with a Kevlar Core
CONSTRUCTION
Style 2060 packing is an interlock braid, utilizing TEADIT s proprietary EWK yarn and a high temperature break-in lubricant EWK yarn totally encapsulates a high strength Kevlar core in an expanded PTFE jacket. The Kevlar core contributes exceptional mechanical strength and dimensional stability, while the PTFE jacket provides chemical resistance, self lubrication and a low coefficient of friction..
APPLICATION / SERVICE
Style 2060 is a superior general service and corrosive service packing. It is especially suited for applications where contamination cannot be tolerated. Its high resistance to extrusion (four times higher than conventional PTFE/graphite packings) makes Style 2060 ideal for handling chemically aggressive fluids in high pressure applications. It is commonly used in valves, pumps and expansion joints.
