Graphite vanes for vacuum pumps

Marpa Vacuum graphite vanes are ideal for rotary vane vacuum pumps and are compatible with all major brands (Busch, Becker, Leybold, Orion and others). They are made of top-quality materials and boast high mechanical strength and a low coefficient of expansion.

For different needs

Main applications for graphite vanes

Graphite vanes are made of a carbon and resin blend for optimum durability and performance of the vacuum equipment. The main applications are:

  • Food processing equipment
  • Printing machinery
  • Packaging machinery
  • Aerospace industry
  • Spray painting equipment
  • Automotive industry

Properties of graphite vanes

Graphite or carbon vanes are made from graphite impregnated with resins that have a number of properties:

Self-lubricating

Ideal for vacuum pumps operating in conditions or with liquids that are poorly lubricated.

Non-toxic

Graphite does not contaminate liquids and gases with which it comes into contact and can be safely used in food processing equipment.

Chemical-resistant

Graphite vanes stand up to most chemical agents, especially corrosive and aggressive environments.

High mechanical strength

They stand up to pressures ranging from 3.2 kgf/cm2 and speeds up to 12.7 m/sec.
