What is the benefit of using this?

I researched graphite vs teflon before purchasing this and couldn't find a good answer. I need the packing for my washing machine shut off valves. I tried the teflon, but it just would not seal, so I purchased the graphite. It stopped the leak. I noticed that the graphite was softer than the teflon and I believe that is why it created a better seal. It was soft enough to mold to the stem where the teflon was hard and did not seal properly.

Is the graphite resistant to heat and up to what temperature?

Thank you for inquiring about a Danco product. Yes, the 3/32 in. x 24 in. Graphite Valve Stem Packing is resistant to heat and has a working temperature range: 0°F - 212°F.

For steam valves in old radiators, do you wind this around the stem, or on the threads of the nut that fits around the stem?

As best as I know, it was ALWAYS wound around the stem. Teflon tape on the nut and threads if you wish, but the packing seals in the water/steam/whatever.If you use so much packing that you can't thread the nut back on, you have used too much. Try a little less! Hope this helps, some ..... Lee

Will this work on a 1/2 inch gate valve?

Thank you for inquiring about a Danco product. Yes, our #80793 graphite packing will be compatible for your 1/2" gate valve. We also carry a 3/32" x 36" #80794 water and energy valve packing and a 5/32" x 18" #80074 packing rope.
