Graphite Packing Style 3000G is a quality grade of gland packing used for sealing in pumps and valves. This dense yet flexible packing is manufactured in the USA using acrylic blended fibres that are impregnated with a high temperature lubricant and high purity graphite. This results in an economical grade of interlock braided packing that will create leak free seals with long performance lives.

How do I Cut It?

A box cutter (AKA Stanley knife) will get through our Style 3000G Graphite Packing, though you may need to make multiple slices (especially with the thicker sizes). If you’re looking to ensure you achieve an exact 45° cut (for making packing rings) specialised packing scissors are best.

Do you make Packing Rings?

We can supply them, yes. We don’t make them ourselves but we do have some great partners who do here in Australia. If you’d like us to arrange some for you shoot us an email with the sizes and details of what you’re after and we can arrange a quote. We can usually turn these around fairly quickly (local stock and a local ring manufacturer helps a lot with this).
