Ceramic Gland Packing
“Ceramic gland packing” consists of ceramic fiber tape and fabric. It is manufactured in various sizes as braided or twisted. Steel wire reinforcement is used to increase tensile strength. This way, the operating temperature can be increased. In areas where electrical resistance is required, fiberglass threads are used. Textile products can be used up to 1000°C.
