Gland packing and packing set

摘要

A gland packing provided in a fluid apparatus such as a pump and compressed in an axial direction so as to prevent penetration leakage of a fluid is provided.;The gland packing has a packing base material 11 of a predetermined length including a band-like flat braid 12 braided by moving a plurality of yarns 13 along one track K. The band-like packing base material 11 is shaped into a ring by abutting longitudinal ends 12a and 12b of the packing base material 11 so that a width direction thereof is parallel with a packing axial direction, and is then compressed in the axial direction, whereby the packing base material 11 is overlappedly folded in a packing axial direction, with a longitudinal direction of the packing base material 11 as a direction of folding lines 14.

主权项

1. A gland packing comprising:
a band-like flat braid of a predetermined length and comprising a plurality of yarns braided together along one track and along one surface, the band-like flat braid having a height, opposing edges defining a width and opposing ends defining a length, the band-like flat braid having a first surface between said opposing edges and opposing ends and a second surface opposing the first surface, the band-like flat braid being compressed and overlappedly folded in a width direction thereof to form the gland packing, the gland packing having at least one folding line, the at least one folding line being generally perpendicular to a direction that corresponds to a width direction of the band-like flat braid.
