Outage Season Sealing Solutions

When outage season is in high gear, the pressure is really on to make repairs quickly and get back on-line. And VSG flexible graphite seals from EGC have qualities that make them a great choice for the high demands of outage season.

• Won’t fuse or gall to valve body as metal seals do – greatly reducing maintenance labor costs to replace the seal
• Can often be used in valves that are out of round, have steam cuts, or are pitted – no additional machining necessary
• Able to withstand thermal cycling demands much better than traditional metal seals – increasing valve uptime

Add in EGC’s decades of graphite engineering and manufacturing expertise, and our flexible graphite seals become an even more powerful sealing solution. That’s how we’ve been able to help power plants reduce maintenance costs and time the plant is offline.
