Description
Tefapak GRF 260 Gland Packing
The GRF 260 gland packing is based on gPTFE, i.e., graphitized, expanded PTFE. The GRF packing is made of PTFE foil thin strips braided with graphite addition. The high graphite content improves thermal conductivity, sliding properties and reduces friction wear, which significantly extends the service life in dynamic applications.

Frequently asked questions
What exactly is gland packing?
A braided sealing cord with a square profile that is laid around the shaft in the stuffing box of a pump or valve. Tightening the gland follower compresses the cord slightly so it seals the shaft without blocking rotation.
Which gland packing materials are there?
Among others pure and graphited PTFE, expanded graphite, aramid, carbon fibre, phenolic fibre and ramie fibre, also in combinations such as aramid-reinforced corners.
Up to what temperature is gland packing resistant?
Depending on the material 120 to 600 °C; the temperature resistance and dimensions are listed per packing on the product page.
