AP Services, a product and service brand of Curtiss-Wright, manufactures valve and pump packing products that have the lowest leak rates and friction in the industry. Style 620 is a flexible, all metallic packing constructed from aluminum foil, which has been treated, heavily lubricated, and crinkle wrapped to a square cross section.

Aluminum foil is recommended for oil, dowtherm, acids, air and water, on hot oil pumps. When used on pumps, the sleeves should be minimum 400 Brinell hardness. Style 620 and 620C are available as individual rings and in bulk.
