Gland packing & Mechanical seal
pump shaft sealing methods, differing mainly in leakage control, maintenance, and cost
Gland packing offers a low-cost, easy-to-maintain sealing solution for water, slurry or general-service fluids, while mechanical seals provide tight, high-performance sealing with minimal leakage, ideal for high-pressure, high-speed or sensitive fluid applications.
