Manufactured from advanced elastomeric materials, the 979849-5 is built to withstand extreme pressures and abrasive slurries common in well-stimulation. Its specialized design minimizes frictional heat buildup, which significantly extends the service life of both the seal and the mating plunger. This component is engineered for a precise fit within the pump stuffing box, ensuring a reliable leak-proof interface. It helps operators reduce NPT and maintenance costs by providing superior resistance to chemical degradation.
