Buratex B 4003 is a flexible cotton packing impregnated with a special light-colored grease impregnating agent. It is preferred for pure, liquid media and clean applications. When it is manufactured, particularly tear-resistant cotton threads are pre-impregnated and twisted. At the next diagonal braiding step, the packing undergoes an additional intensive impregnating stage.
