PTFE packing
PTFE packing is a polytetrafluoroethylene-based compression-packing family installed as compressed rings in a stuffing box; it is not the same identity as a PTFE sheet gasket. Fibres, fillers, lubricants, braid and thermal or chemical behaviour can vary. Selection must use the specific product's equipment motion, medium, speed, pressure, temperature and installation guidance.
