Marigold 345 Packing is a very economical grade of packing designed to offer versatility, reliability and long lasting performance. This grade has been designed specifically for use in pump sealing applications where it offers reliable service.
Marigold 345 is produced from a proprietary blend of high quality flax and ramie yarns which are impregnated with a PTFE inert lubricant. The resulting plait braided packing is easy to cut and install whilst simultaneously offering excellent braid retention and a good amount of flexibility. This combination of characteristics makes Marigold 345 very easy to cut and install.
Marigold 345 is typically used in pump applications with shaft speeds up to 9 MPS and pressure ratings no higher than 20 BAR. This packing handles temperatures up to 104ºC and offers long lasting performance coupled with good resistance to corrosion. This combination of factors makes Marigold 345 Packing ideal for use in both saltwater and freshwater marine applications thanks to its low initial cost and extended service life.
