Pumps, valves and compressors

Graphite and carbon for pumps, valves, and compressors: ESGRAF advises on material selection and application support across Mexico and the Americas.

[ Industry description ]

Carbon-graphite vanes, rings, seals, and bushings for rotating equipment.

Pumps, valves, and compressors depend on seals, vanes, and bushings that run with little external lubrication and in difficult media. Carbon-graphite provides self-lubrication and dimensional stability in those conditions.

ESGRAF machines components and recommends the grade based on fluid, speed, and operating pressure.

[ Related graphite applications ]

Machine bushings and spacers
They reduce friction and wear on moving components in high-temperature and demanding atmospheres.
Pump mechanical seals
They guarantee efficient sealing in mechanical systems subjected to high pressures and temperatures.
Machine seal rings
Graphite and carbon-graphite seal rings for precision rotary and static applications.
Centrifugal pump blades
Graphite/carbon-graphite vanes for pumps and rotating equipment. Also machined graphite impellers or rotors when the design calls for a one-piece rotating element.
Valve seats
Graphite and carbon-graphite valve seats for reliable sealing at temperature and in aggressive media.
Sealing packings
Graphite packings for dynamic and static sealing in valves, pumps, and flanges.
Sealing monoblock gaskets
They provide hermetic sealing in engines and mechanical systems.
Valve stem seals
Flexible graphite and carbon-graphite valve seals for tight shutoff at temperature.
Thread sealing and lubrication
Graphite paste that seals and lubricates threaded joints exposed to high temperature and pressure.
