Lionpak® 5301

A specialised packing with carbon fibre strength, low friction and heat dissipation.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
  • Molten salt
  • Pumps
  • Valves

Lionpak 5301 is a tough, high performance packing inter-braided from carbon fibre yarn.

It is impregnated with James Walker's proprietary graphite-based dispersion as a blocking agent, and a molybdenum based corrosion inhibitor.

  • Strong, pliable and abrasion resistant
  • Excellent heat dissipation and low friction qualities
  • Inter-braiding plus blocking agent ensures leak-free construction
  • Corrosion inhibitor prevents galvanic corrosion when used on applications with steam

Valves, pumps, mixers, reactors and agitators, handling steam, acids, alkalis, solvents, organic chemicals, gases and thermic fluids such as molten salt.
