    The mechanical seal acts as a check valve and a slider bearing.
    The obvious function is that of a check valve to prevent liquid
    under pressure from leaking out of the pump, or from drawing air
    into the pump when under vacuum conditions.

    What is pump packing?

    watertight seal and prevent water leaking up the shaft when the
    tap is turned on.

    How is pump packing measured?


    Use the correct cross-section of packing or die-forming rigns:
    To determine the correct packing size, measure the diameter of
    the shaft (inside the stuffing box area if possible) and
    then measure the diameter of the stuffing box (to give the O.D. of
    the ring). Subtract the I.D. measurement from the O.D.Mar 3, 2020
