TP-4000 Sealing Compound
TP-4000 Aragraphe™ Fiber Mechanical Sealing Compound will seal most rotating or reciprocating equipment. Self-lubricating and self-cooling, TP-4000 needs no seal or cooling water. Flush systems are eliminated and pumps operate with zero leakage. Maintenance is simple with our online injection systems .
TP-4000 will also seal valves the first time for the last time. Its special blend of lubricants will not dry or harden over long periods of time, leaving valves well sealed and easy to open.
TP-4000 is not recommended for pulp mill black liquor, lime slurries, polar petroleum distillates, nitric acid and with brass or bronze shaft sleeves.Please see TP-4800 and TP-5400
Sealing Compounds: Examples of Applications & Industries
Paper Industry
Used extensively to lower water usage and minimize downtime. Applications include stock pumps, agitators, pulpers, screens, refiners, vacuum pumps.
Waste Water
Online injection provides quick and clean method of “repacking” . Commonly used in sludge pumps, positive displacement, screw conveyors. Provides zero leakage solution for less than a mechanical seal.
Power Industry, coal fired
Replaces braided packing in klinker grinders. Delivers supperior seal and longevity. Can also be used in agitator and vacuum applications.
