Graphite thread
[ Description ]
Felt stitching, auxiliary seals and thermal textiles — diameter and presentation quoted
Thermal textile for stitching and auxiliary sealing
Graphite thread is produced from fibers subjected to carbonization and graphitization processes. The result is a high-temperature-resistant thread with low friction and good stability against aggressive media.
ESGRAF supplies it for sewing soft felts, fabricating packing reinforcements, tying elements in furnaces and other applications requiring a flexible element that does not degrade with heat.
Typical applications
- Joining and reinforcing soft felt in heat-treatment and vacuum furnaces.
- Complement in sealing systems together with braided packing or flexible laminates.
- Liners, ties and auxiliary elements in high-temperature equipment.
Service properties
- Thermal resistance in inert or controlled atmospheres.
- Low friction and good thermal conductivity compared to organic fibers.
- Superior chemical resistance to conventional threads in aggressive media.
Do not confuse with structural carbon fiber (HT/UHT): graphite thread is intended for textile and insulation applications, not structural mechanical loads such as aerospace composites.
Information for quoting
Provide diameter or count, required length or weight, application (felt stitching, packing, static/dynamic sealing), maximum temperature, working atmosphere and quantity.
