Jampak® 27 uses a blend of high-performance PTFE fibers and chemically resistant lubricants. It is recommended for use in caustics, acids, sea water and certain solvents and processes. It can be utilized in pumps, rotating and reciprocating equipment. Characteristics: •Malleable, putty-like consistency makes it easy to use and install. •Utilizes latest chemistry and fiber technology. •Works well on worn shafts by conforming to odd shapes. •Low coefficient of friction reduces heat. •Operates virtually leak free. •Convenient packaging.
Benefits •Reduces operating costs by being less costly over the life of the pump or valve. •Saves on energy consumption. •Reduces or eliminates downtime. •Extends equipment life. •Self Lubricating. •Reduces shaft and sleeve wear. •No flush required.
