Soot Blower Packing
WHAT IS EBOLON 48-V SOOT BLOWER PACKING?
It is a composite of carbon/graphite and PTFE molded in V-Ring
packing sets with male and female adapters, especially designed for the heat and
stress in soot blowers used with saturated steam.
WHY A GRAPHITE/PTFE COMPOSITE?
Graphite has always been one of the best and most popular lubricants for mechanical
packing. PTFE is increasingly popular for its low friction and sealing ability
especially in soot blowers. Other PTFE composites are available.
EBOLON 48-V SOOT SETS
Ebolon 48-V has proved itself in steam power plants in the U.S. and Canada
for over 30 years.
REPLACED OTHER PACKING
Originally developed as an improvement on short-lived die-formed braided asbestos
types as well as the more abrasive glass and ceramic composites.
Ebolon 48-V retains its softness and sealing ability with steam pressure for long
periods of time. It never age-hardens as many packings do under extreme conditions.
MOLDED
Ebolon 48-V Soot Blower Packing is molded on a high tonnage hydraulic press
with sophisticated controls which produces the high-density, low porosity and wear
resistance required by the soot blower. The packing presents a smooth
anti-fricitonal surface to the rotating lance, thereby extending its life.
UNIQUE ANGLE V-RING DESIGN
Chicago Gasket's unique angle between the mating V-Rings promotes a spring action
that spreads the lips to seat this self-energizing V-Packing. When additional
V-Rings are required, they are simply added to the top of the set. For users
accustomed to shallow slots at the base of each V-Ring, these can be provided
upon request.
