VK1L Graphited KELVAR packing, combines a concentrated blend of lubricants with the benefits of KELVAR fibre, to produce an exceptional general plant packing. Replacing standard braid over braid Graphited Asbestos packings with Type VK1L will significantly increase packing life particularly against abrasive media.

Applications
General purpose, wide-ranging, durable Asbestos replacement packing. For use in rotary, reciprocating and static applications particularly against abrasive fluids, weak chemicals and water.

Type VK1D Graphited Inconel wire reinforced KELVAR packing is an excellent replacement for classic Asbestos packings particularly where packing strength and abrasion resistance is important. The combination of Inconel wire reinforcement and the steel like strength of KELVAR results in high temperature, high pressure packing with exceptional resilience.

Applications
VK1D is a superior non-asbestos valve packing also suitable for plunger pumps, turbines and static seals. Particularly for use against oils, air, water, hot steam and asphalt.

VK5 is THE packing for extended life in high pressure or mechanical load conditions, particularly on worn or large tolerance equipment and in the most demanding chemical environments. Shaft wear is virtually eliminated, and high speeds and aggressive chemicals can be handled, because of the presence of GFO on the sealing faces. Extrusion and gland maintenance is negligible, even in the most arduous of applications, due to the inter-locked braiding of KEVLAR.

Applications
Type VK5 combines mechanical strength with surface lubricity to give a long lasting, high performance sealing, near universal packing for use in all rotary, reciprocating and static gland applications.
