Style 690 is a braided expanded low sulfur, low contaminant flexible graphite yarn. It also contains a sacrificial corrosion inhibitor. Style 690 is a nuclear grade packing.

Style 690 is available in the following cross-section range:
1/8" to 1 1/2" (3.0 mm to 38.1 mm)

 

Applications

Style 690 is suitable for steam, water, oil, solvents, alkalis, acids, and most chemicals. Exceptions are oleum, fuming nitric acid, aqua regia, and fluorine.
