Bio Soluble Rope Packing
Product Description
- Manufactured from special alkaline earth silicate yarns which are bio soluble (body soluble / low bio persistence) and were developed as a direct replacement for harmful asbestos and refractory ceramic fibre products.
- Bio soluble yarns are rated to 1000°C in optimum conditions.
- Bio soluble packings are reinforced with glass (550°C) or metal wire (1000°C) and they contain approximately 20% organic fibre which burns off at low temperatures.
- Bio soluble packings are available in three different constructions each with their own unique characteristics as explained below.
Constructions Explained
- Standard packings are produced by braiding bio soluble fibre yarn over a compact core of bio soluble fibre yarns. They are compact, firm and flexible with high mechanical resistance and excellent static sealing properties.
- Soft core packings are produced by braiding bio soluble fibre yarns around a central core of bio soluble fibre insulation. Soft core packings are less dense, lighter in weight but more flexible than standard or brick solid packings. They have high thermal insulation capacity and excellent static sealing properties.
- Brick solid packings are produced by the "Braid-over-Braid" method where bio soluble fibre yarns are heavy braided over a very compact core of braided bio soluble yarns. Brick solid packings are a total braided construction and are therefore exceptionally compact, brick solid in density and maintain superior mechanical resistance under pressure, compression and abrasion.
*Standard packings account for 90% of all packings produced, therefore if the construction type is not known, it is standard construction which we will quote for.
Applications
- Rope Door Seals for Furnaces / Kilns / Industrial Ovens and Boilers.
- Component of ‘O' Ring Rope Gasket Seals.
Further Enhancements
Textile Technologies can further enhance the above loomstate rope packings as follows:
- Apply a dry black graphite dispersion to improve abrasion resistance and aesthetics.
- Apply a wet black graphite dispersion to improve sealing qualities and resistance to hot gases.
- Apply a dry or wet PTFE coating to seal the fibres and create a more non stick and impermeable surface.
- Apply a vermiculite dispersion to improve abrasion resistance and increase its temperature resistance up to 1000°C.
- Apply an outer coating / impregnation of Industrial or Food Grade Silicone Polymer to improve sealing attributes specifically in hot moist environments.
- Apply a metal overbraid from galvanised steel, stainless steel or inconel to greatly improve the abrasion resistance and increase the life of the seal. Options include:
- Metal Open Overbraid
- Metal Knitted Overbraid
- Metal Full Coverage Overbraid
