Why Standard Braided Packing Fails – And How Aohong Fixes It

Braided Packing: The Oil-Impregnated Solution for Reliable Sealing

The Problem with Standard Packing Materials

Conventional braided packing often fails prematurely due to inadequate oil impregnation, leading to:

• Frequent repacking (weekly in some cases)
• Constant gland adjustments
• Dried-out seals after just 300 operating hours

Aohong’s oil-impregnated braided packing solves these chronic issues with boring reliability.

Advanced Oil Retention Technology

Developed after analyzing failures at a Texas refinery, our solution features:

1. Deep oil saturation through multi-stage impregnation
2. Specialized oil blend resistant to washout and degradation
3. Pre-compressed design eliminating 40-hour break-in periods

Lab tests show our packing maintains 22-24% oil retention after 1,000 hours – nearly double standard products.
