To achieve zero leakage between a moving member and a relatively stationary part, a wide range of seals and rings are employed. However, the most common, last expensive and versatile in nature is the Gland Packing. Gland Packing provides a dynamic seal for or stem via a housing or gland which resilient or semi - resilient material, thus providing a localised contact area which offers a physical barrier to leakage.

Gland Packings are not an exact science as its performance depends upon many variables. The filling of a packing is an art and results depend largely on manual skills. The 'Man with a Wrench' therefore, can sometimes, be a dangerous person in your  plant, responsible for scored rods, excessive down time and wasted packings.

Eastwell Asbestos Industries (Pvt) Ltd., take great case at the construction stage of its gland packings which leads to a better performance even under minor imperfections in the plant condition and fitment, however, certain preparatory precautions, correct procedure of fitment and correct selection of grade and size of the gland packing would help in achieving the best results.
