Water Pump Gland Packing Material

Gland packings are made of the combination of the materials discussed earlier and are manufactured in plaited braided twisted jacketed corrugated foil foil wrapped deformable core and full foil form.

Water pump gland packing material.

It is prudent to consult the manufacturer s manual about the type of gland packing to be used. Water resistant packing seals these seals require lighter packing pressure than standard oil and water resistant packing seals so they cause less friction and reduce shaft wear. Water abrasive products oils and foodstuffs. The next type of packing materials are moulds that work in conjunction with gland packing.

Packing seals use rope like materials that wrap around the shaft of a pump filling in dead space and minimizing fluid loss. We offer a wide range of multipurpose gland packing for pump and valve with highest quality. The style 77hs mould works with the style 99 series and is resistant to abrasion from materials like slurry. They re made of graphite impregnated aramid fiber and are for use in pumps and valves.

High tensile specialised acrylic yarn firm crossplait packing. Widely used in the paper brewing food water and chemical industries. Compression packing is also commonly known as packing braided packing mechanical packing pump gland packing valve stem packing rope packing. Braided mechanical compression packing bmcp or simply compression packing is a soft pliant and resilient special shaped rope material braided with various filaments or yarns configured for inserting into an annular space gland or stuffing box to seal a rotary reciprocating or static mechanical device such as a pump or valve.

It enhances the qualities of the packing to ensure fully that no leaks occur. While not essential they are still extremely effective.
