Dry Packing Seals

Properties The Gland Packing Must Possess

• Good anti-friction properties
• Good chemical resistance to fluid contained
• Should not get affected by the temperature of application
• Should be reasonably compressible and have a good resilience
• Should retain the lubricants
• Should not affect the shaft
• Should not contaminate the fluid being contained

Hindustan composites manufactures a wide range of Gland packings to suit a variety of applications. They are of both Dry as well as Lubricated types. 
Gland packing is not an exact science as its performance depends upon many variables. The fitment of a packing is an art and results depend largely on manual skills. The man with wrench therefore can sometimes be a dangerous person in your plant responsible for scored rods, excessive down time and wasted packing.
Hindustan composites takes great care at the construction stage of its gland packings which lead to a better performance even under minor imperfections in the plant condition and fitment. However certain preparatory precautions, correct procedure of fitment, selection of grade and size of the gland packings would help in achieving the best results.
