Compression Packings

The packed gland is an exceptionally reliable fluid sealing device that is simple to install and maintain. Not only is it highly versatile, but also remarkably cost effective in both plant downtime and materials - especially when compared to complex alternatives.

Our constant advances in materials and lubricants, product design and manufacturing techniques, keep us at the forefront of compression packing technology. We therefore bring you one of the widest ranges of packings to match the temperatures, pressures and speeds of your most modern fluid handling systems, and economical packings for your older plant.

Many of our packings will dramatically reduce your stockholding levels - as one carefully selected length-form product can often be used for many different valves, pumps and other fluid handling plant at your site.

Groups

Valve stem packings

We manufacture over 30 grades of compression packing for valve stem duties. 

A number of these are well-proven and highly recommended for VOC fugitive emission control, with our Supagraf® Premier independently rated as the world-beating product in its class.


Centrifugal Pumps/Rotary Plant

Our 25 compression packings for centrifugal pumps and rotary equipment cover shaft speeds up to 25m/s - as well as providing unrivalled chemical and abrasion resistance.

For less demanding applications, many of our economical XA and natural fibre grades offer longterm reliability with reduced shaft wear.


Reciprocating Pumps/Rams

We have almost 20 compression packing grades for reciprocating pumps and rams.

Between them, they will handle duties to well beyond 250bar on slurry pumps -- plus the unusual demands of massive water-powered rams for boat lifts on canals.


Static − Tank Lids

Our comprehensive Tankatite® range of tank lid packings has been constantly developed to meet increasingly stringent international regulations that cover the maritime transport of chemical and potentially hazardous cargoes.

Extensions to the range cover the requirements of road and rail transport plus static or mobile tank containers.


Static − Furnace Doors
Three products for very high temperature static duties, with two of them suitable for very low speed rotating applications.

Maintenance Kits − Repacking
Maintenance Kits − Repacking

The following five kits are ready-stocked tool boxes containing all the special tools and compression packings normally needed for on-site gland maintenance of pumps, valves and rotary equipment.

They are designed for use in the chemical, food processing, power generation, pulp and paper, or water industries.
