Aramid packing – Type: CH AR9

Carsten Holms CH AR9 is an interlace, square braid packing manufactured from Kevlar® Aramid fibres impregnated with PTFE dispersion and specially treated with temperature break-in lubricant. Kevlar® offers a unique combination of extremely high tensile strength, lasting resilience, low thermal expansion, low coefficient of friction and wide chemical resistance.
CH AR9 Kevlar® gold fibre packing is a true multi-service packing that is well suited to the needs of many industries, particularly where physical strength in a packing is required. The strength of Kevlar® is ideal for use as an anti-extrusion, abrasion resistant, back-up rings, with other packing types, to increase the life of any packing combination.

PROFILE

PRODUCT ADVANTAGES
• Easy installation and removal
• Resistant against general chemicals
• High tensile strength
• Lasting resilience
• Low thermal expansion
• Low coefficient of friction

APPLICATION
For pumps (rotary and reciprocating) and valves, including high pressure or high mechanical loading conditions, against abrasive slurries, sewage, effluents, water, oil, solvents and most chemicals.
The non-staining superior lubrication of CH AR9 leads to less wear and higher shaft speed capability than some other Kevlar® packings. Suitable for use in the paper industry.

Never use the product when maximum temperature and pressure are combined.
