Braided packing performance is determined by fiber, braid density, and impregnation — three variables that can only be controlled if they are measured. Kaxite’s lab tests each production lot before dispatch, and the resulting report becomes part of the batch documentation.
Request Test Report Sample →Standard PTFE, graphite, and silicone impregnations cover most pump and valve duties. For aggressive media, high shaft speeds, or specific friction targets, the lab evaluates custom formulations against the buyer’s operating envelope.
For each qualified specification, the buyer can receive test data tied to the production batch, not a generic catalog value. This matters when the packing is going into a documented maintenance or shutdown scope.
Tensile strength, density, friction, and chemical resistance. The results are recorded per lot and become part of the batch documentation, not a one-time catalog value.
Yes. Send operating temperature, pressure, media, shaft speed, and the failure mode of the current packing. The lab reviews the formulation route — PTFE, graphite, silicone, or a blend — against that envelope.
Yes. The test report is linked to the production batch identification, and can be paired with an EN 10204 3.1 certificate when the order requires it.
Send the operating conditions and the lab team will review the formulation route.
