Factory supplied PTFE Graphite Braided Packing Supply to Norwegian

It is a braided packing made of PTFE yarn containing graphite. It is recommended for shafts for almost all chemicals. Stability and long service lift are achieved by low friction coefficient. It has great tear strength and high thermal conductivity. This self lubrication packing does not score the shaft and minimizes sleeve rep, acement cost. It can be used to seal alkalis, solvents, water, steam, acids except strong oxidizing acids( aqua regia, fuming nitric acid, fuming nitric acid, fuming sulfuric acid,etc.) for centrifugal pumps, autoclaes, agitators mixers, etc.

First, I sanded the cracked area so the epoxy would adhere to the tank better. After applying the epoxy, I let it cure overnight for 12 hours. However, I noticed a spot that I had missed so I applied more quick steel the following morning.

This is the first time I’ve done this so I’m crossing my fingers hoping it works. I’ve seen other videos where people use soldering irons before applying the epoxy however, I did not take that approach because my tank was full of fuel. I did want to risk catching something on fire.
