Graphite Gland Packing

Gland packings are a conventional way of solving dynamic sealing constructions that is still popular. This category of seal leakage damps between the moving part and the housing and is extremely important for the effectiveness of rotary motion mixers, pumps, valves, and other industrial equipment. The sealant was simply a plant fiber saturated with grease placed between the pump casing and the rotating shaft in a gland for decades. The benefit of this remedy is the simplicity of construction and the gradual signaling of wear and tear by increasing leakage.
