The document describes two types of metallic packings: an all metallic packing made of thin ribbons of alloy foil spirally wrapped around a core with each layer lubricated with oil and graphite; and an aluminum packing made of aluminum alloy foil treated, lubricated, crinkled and wrapped upon itself with each layer also lubricated. Both packings are graphited throughout and can be used in centrifugal and reciprocating pumps as well as rods and valve stems up to 3600 RPM and temperatures of 450°F and 1000°F respectively.
