- 100% STAINLESS STEEL CONSTRUCTION
ERL’s SUPER SEAL™ Reach Rod Stuffing Box is completely constructed of 300 series stainless steel. Produced on computer controlled machines to accurately control dimensional quality, the body of the stuffing box is a massive 5” diameter to prevent deformation of the bore from the heat of welding during installation. - VAPOR TIGHT PERFORMANCE
Teflon™ lip seals are designed to fit perfectly in each size Stuffing Box forming an effective vapor tight seal preventing fugitive emissions. The “V” shaped Teflon™ seals are compressed with a stainless steel compression spring. A bronze bushing with impregnated PTFE provides support for the shaft while minimizing friction and wear. For best long term performance the reach rod should be turned, ground and polished stainless steel. - EASY INSTALLATION
