Teflon Accordion Packing

Part Number: 76059TF

This patent pending design offers a custom Teflon® accordion packing with Teflon® encapsulated O-rings used as energizers to keep the packing actively charged.  This feature increases the packing’s sealability and resists cold-flowing that leads to loose packing nuts.

With this packing configuration, the packing nut requires minimal tightening torque to seal.  Tightening range of packing nut is 10 to 25 foot-pounds.  Bore and shaft of valve must be clean and free of damage or corrosion prior to install.

This packing is suitable for use with Betts’ Standard Hydrolet Valves*, Sliding Valves and Gate Valves.

* The 76059TF is NOT suitable for use with Outside Screw & Yolk Hydrolet.  See 76315TF for OS&Y Hydrolet.
