Chesterton 5700/5700B Sootblower Sealing System

The Chesterton 5700/5700B Sootblower Kit combines exclusive materials to seal the stuffing box. The main die-formed, inhibited graphite rings are self-lubricating, low friction, and high purity. Manufactured from pure graphite ribbon tape without any fillers, binders, or resins, each ring is engineered to an accurate specific density for compression resistance, elasticity, and retention of size and shape—all of which are necessary to provide the best possible sealing performance.

Product Features

5300 GTP Sealing Rings: Die-formed, inhibited graphite rings are self-lubricating, low friction high purity. Manufactured from pure graphite ribbon tape without any fillers, binders or resins. Each ring is engineered to an accurate specific density for compression resistance, elasticity, and retention of size and shape, all of which are necessary to provide the best possible sealing performance

1600 End-Rings: Add both sealing and anti-extrusion properties to the five ring set
5150 Live Loading Assemblies: Used to maintain constant gland load while compensating for in-service consolidation of the packing
A New Split Bronze Bushing: Used to reduce stuffing box depth while acting as a bearing to maintain lance tube concentricity to the stuffing box in blowers that require more than a conventional 5-ring set of packing
