RAMIFLEX

Merkel RAMIFLEX is braided pump packing made from a very stable, flexible and tear resistant ramie yarn DIAPLEX and impregnated with a bright red special grease. Ramie is much more tear-resistant than cotton and rot-resistant.

The packing has very good running properties and is extremely wear-resistant in abrasive media such as mud, crystallised suspensions and sewage.

Ramiflex is thus particularly suitable for application in shipping (stern tube and bilge pump sealing).

Product advantages: 

• Very wear-resistant.
• Long service life and better sealing behavior.
• Protects the shaft.

Application:

Rotary and plunger pumps.

Media:

Cold and warm water, air, etc.
