FF.GI Srl provides a wide range of braided gland packing and special braided packing for all industrial sealing needs, made from the most modern and technical yarn on the market.
The braiding machine makes cylindrical layers of yarn.
The exact size is reached with braiding layers one
over the other, using 12 and 16 shuttle braiding
machines.
Braid over a core
The final product is made through braiding one or
more layers of yarn over the core. The core may be
extruded, twisted, or braided. The construction may
be attained both on circuit and diagonally braiding
machines
Diagonally braided
Every fiber is fixed by the others, forming thick, united structure, which cannot unbraid or break down while working.
There are not separate layers, which wear out one by one, nor the braid is loosened. The diago-nally
braided packings have more regular density, which is an opportunity for better lubricants’ retention. Thus the produced packing is solid and flexible. Such packings are suitable for centrifugal and piston pumps, mixers, valves, compensators, etc.
