Super INTALOX Saddles are favored by designers and

industries that once used ceramic saddles but now want
the superior performance of plastic Super INTALOX Saddles.

p, in wc/ft

Plastic Super INTALOX Saddles have been used for many

years and have become the standard for many designers
and processes. This packing has been used extensively and
therefore their performance is widely known. It is less
sensitive to liquid distribution quality and has higher liquid
hold-up and residence time for those services that benefit
from such characteristics.
