Vulcan Types VR3 is a braided packing; constructed from 100% Grafan yarns to give it truly exceptional capabilities and performance.

Under compression in the gland, Types VR3 die-form into packing rings like VR2, whilst offering the advantage of avoiding the need to laboriously wrap VR1 ribbon tape around valve stems or the cost of an inventory of many sizes of individual VR2 die-formed rings.

VR3 can be cut to length and spiralled into the gland. There is no need for individual cut rings, as is the case with conventional braided packing. Grafan is self-lubricating and will not shrink nor harden nor dry out in use.

Applications:
Extreme condition, long life and zero leakage packing for all uses, up to high temperature, high-pressure, high-speed applications on pumps, valves, mixers, agitators, expansion joints, ball valve seats and other static seals.

• Features
