PTFE Non-Asbestos Pump Packing
Style 1173
APG’s Style 1173 pump packing is saturated and sealed after braiding with PTFE (Teflon) particles which provides a greater degree of chemical inertness, lower coefficient of friction, and prevents penetration of chemical fluids. To assure good break-in characteristics, a light oil is applied. Style 1173 is recommended for operating temperatures up to 500°F / 260°C and shaft speeds up to 1850 feet per minute in caustics, mild acids, difficult chemicals, oils, and general chemical plant applications in general service, rotating and reciprocating pumps and agitators.
