    This document discusses different types of pumping seals, including packing seals and mechanical seals. Packing seals have direct shaft wear issues that mechanical seals aim to address. Mechanical seals feature rotating and stationary elements that create a seal through contact rather than packing. They allow wear to occur on the sealing elements rather than the shaft. The document describes single and double mechanical seals used in various pump configurations, highlighting bellows-type mechanical seals that offer benefits like withstanding high temperatures and pressures with low spring loads.
