Selection of Mechanical Gland Packing for special Applications.
The chose of Mechanical Gland Packing is a very essential part of the engineering job. An wrongly selection of mechanical gland packing would fail soon in service & lead to leakages. As many types of gland packing’s available., the selection is very vide in this field. There is no one type of gland packing that can deal all kinds of fluid or which is appropriate for mostly all types of valves & applications. Only a valve with good sealing is excellent and a leaking sealing arrangement amounts to a leaking valve plus its connected faults.
It’s not just irritation to the eyes it is also a work, health, fire hazard. Glands packing’s are made of the mixture of the materials discussed earlier and are manufactured in plaited, twisted, corrugated foil, foil wrapped, jacketed, braided, deformable core, & full foil form. It is prudent to consult the manufacturer’s manual about the style of gland packing to be used.
The gland manufacturers also provide a list of applications where the mechanical gland packing is compatible and can be used; these should be consulted before use.
We offer different types of gland packing related to following equipments
