Clean Leaf™ compressed sheet packings from The Anchor Packing Company, Philadelphia, are made from a new synthetic polymer fiber combined with a choice of rubber compounds, depending upon the intended service conditions. The sheets are 100 percent asbestos-free yet compete with asbestos in price; gaskets cut from the new material are said to meet or exceed every performance characteristic of the best asbestos sheet packings, including fluid and temperature resistance, pressure rating, compressibility, recovery, sealability, and oil resistance.
