Merkel Carbosteam S consists of flexible graphite core with a wear-resistant
carbon yarn jacket. Besides the good elasticity and large cross sectional
density, this packing has a continuous volume stability. The jacket is sealed
and heat-resistant. The graphite-filled impregnation facilitates fitting and
the sliding behaviour on the spindle is optimized.
The content of soluble chloride for this packing is below
50 ppm.
Merkel Carbosteam S is used in particular in power
generation and is used in all industries where high temperatures and aggressive
media are used.
