Grade M-58 has received approval from the Food and Drug Administration so it can be used in food contact applications, meaning the oil-free, self-lubricating, carbon-graphite material can be used in dry running, food mixer seals to provide lower seal friction and longer seal wear life. The electro-graphite base material contains an additive to reduce friction and improve the dry running wear rate. Available fully machined to the user’s drawing specifications, primary seal rings can be used in temperatures between -30 and 800°F (-34 to 427°C).
