Palmetto Style 1030AF

Style 1030AF is designed for a wide variety of rotating and
oscillating equipment including pumps, mixers, agitators
and blenders.
Style 1030AF is braided from Palmetto’s exclusive
Quadrasyn™ composite containing Kynol®/Aramid
and heavily impregnated with our Impregloid™
solid lubricant system. Unlike conventional packings,
style 1030AF does not employ a liquid lubricant,
thus reducing packing shrinkage and the need for
constant gland adjustment.
How to Order
With its unique fiber and lubricant, 1030AF delivers
exceptionally high sealability with lighter gland pressure.
This results in lower packing pressure against the shaft or
sleeve, causing a substantial decrease in frictional drag,
frictional heat and wear. These properties extend packing
life, reduce fluid loss (less leak-off), lower downtime and
increase efficiency (machinery runs cooler with reduced
energy consumption).
Style 1030AF is recommended for general service in water,
oils, brines, solvents, and mild acids and alkalis
