TYPE VC6
Service Capability
Pressure Rating: 100bar Rotary Speed: 12m/s
Temperature: -30+120°C pH range: 4 - 12
 
Product Information
This packing is made from twisted Cotton yarns thoroughly impregnated, during and after braiding, with PTFE dispersion and special inert lubricants. The addition of PTFE dispersion widens the chemical resistance of VC6 compared to standard graphited or plain Cotton packings. The special lubricants ease fibre to metal contact and embody very high lubricating properties, tenaciously adhering to metal shafts.

Type VC6 is a soft, strong, absorbent, Cotton packing that prevents shaft wear because the Cotton constantly absorbs the liquid being pumped along with any abrasive media. VC6 provides high flexibility with a very low co-efficient of friction and maintains a soft, moist pliable running face to the shaft.

Applications
The special lubrication of Type VC6 is sea-water and slurry resistant. VC6 can be used for sealing stern glands, pumps and valves against water, sewage, solvents, oils, fats and abrasive solutions.

These Cotton yarns are also produced as Type VGC 206 lubricated graphited Cotton packing and Type VC4 mineral oil lubricated plain Cotton packing.

 
 
TYPE VT5
Service Capability
Pressure Rating: 130bar Rotary Speed: 12m/s
Temperature: -30+120°C pH range: 2 - 12
 
Product Information
Type VT5 is an outstanding PTFE impregnated and lubricated packing, made to replace traditional PTFE Asbestos packings, without sacrificing the strength and natural sealing qualities of Asbestos. Asbestos replacement packings normally have a payoff in terms of capabilities of the fibre used, or in the terms of cost. VT5 is a low cost, quality packing giving outstanding service life. Vulcan VT5 is braided from natural Ramie fibres which are extremely strong and therefore highly resistant to wear and to rotting. A long-term PTFE impregnation is bound to each yarn in a special process and the packing is further treated with inert lubricants.

VT5 PTFE Ramie fibre packing is especially suitable for aqueous mixtures containing abrasive media such as found in water, sewage, paper and marine industries. VT5 is non-staining and smooth running to give a high level of shaft protection. This packing is characterised by its long service life with high mechanical strength and excellent volumetric stability.

Applications
Multi-purpose pump and valve packing for exceptional trouble-free service life against general and abrasive media. For use in the water, marine, brewing, food, chemical, petro-chemical and paper industries.

 
 
TYPE VF4
Service Capability
Pressure Rating: 130bar Rotary Speed: 10m/s
Temperature: -30+120°C pH range: 2 - 12
 
Product Information
VF4 is braided from selected, long fibre, heavy duty, flax yarns thoroughly impregnated yarn by yarn with PTFE and treated with break-in lubricants. The packing is designed to give a very low coefficient of friction, resistance to wear and rotting, good compressibility, high flexibility, high tensile strength and comparative ease of installation and take-up especially on large cross-sections.

VF4 PTFE Flax packing is especially designed to seal large cross-sectional areas and is ideal to solve the exacting sealing requirements of stern glands in the marine field. The packing will also be of superior service in heavy reciprocating machinery, rotary applications handling abrasive media and heavy duty static applications such as tank lid seals.

Applications
For use in paper, marine, chemical, pharmaceutical, sugar and water industries against salt water, slurries, hydrocarbons, oils, greases and solvents.
