Flexitallic TR160 / TH894 Stem Sets have been developed primarily for high-temperature molten salt valve applications. Each set is comprised of a Thermiculite® 894 header and footer ring loosely blocked to size and shape with a single scarf cut, with two to six TR160 die-formed central rings (stuffing box depth-dependent).
As standard, the TR160 components are supplied as solid rings, however, they can be split in half to aid installation. Thermiculite® possesses excellent thermal and chemical resistance, consequently, Flexitallic TR160 / 894 stem sets are especially suitable for ‘Molten Salt’ applications where graphite and standard stem packing materials are both chemically and thermally degraded.
